Your Rolex in the plane
I'm traveling all the time and I'm sure I'm not the only one spending a massive part of time in planes ............

I don't spend "massive" amounts of time on planes, but I do travel a good bit.

One of my routines is, if I am traveling to a different time zone, I do not change the time on my watch until the cabin door has been sealed...

I travel a lot between North America and France (came back from Newark this morning). I have a similar routine as rmfnla: I change the hour hand on my GMT IIc to the destination time as soon as I am settled in my seat (the 24 hour hand always stays on French time).

Interesting. You wear your GMTIIC while playing 777 Flight Simulator? Your setup looks quite convincing by the way!



Now serious, I'm green with envy you guys can fly those birds. Also love your GMTIIC shot in the EK Suite in F. Best service on earth and great crews too.

It's hard to tell but the watch on my wrist is a Stainless Rolex that I was wearing one a day I arrived to an event.

Not a great shot - too bright for my cell. Flight to Frankfurt to Vancouver. Our plane actually made an emergency landing in Iceland on this trip. Interesting experience!
