    The Swiss Hypertec Extreme is rated and guaranteed for 39,000 feet. It's also less than one thousand dollars.

    Oh god. I thought I was done with Swiss watches today. I had to write a presentation on Geneva drives, so I was looking up all manner of things. Including an hour just devoted to staring at Swiss watch gears.

    I felt sick afterwards. Damn Tourbillions.

    FYI, the Mariana's trench is about 11km deep (~36000ft) so about halfway down the watch would be crushed into oblivion after all :)

    Isn't Swiss Army/Swiss Military an oxymoron?

    @WillowPhaethon: I'm a little too lazy to wikipedia this but the Swiss citizens are involved in some sort of militia and even get military guns they can keep in their house. They have the highest number of guns per capita of any country, if I remember correctly.

    @The Lab: Excuse me, but there are some facts you need to know when commention on any social or political practice in a European nation:

    1) All European countries hate guns and our freedom, this is why we need to not do anything they do because that means someone will take our guns and our freedom.

    2) Everyone in Europe has to wait in line to go to a hospital, when they get to the front of the line they are sent to another line to wait in until they die. This is because all European nations are tied for last place in having the worst healthcare.

    3) Education is so bad in Europe that people only think they have guns, but in fact they all have mops and sticks painted matte black.

    4) 'Merikuh has the A#1 best healthcare and education and freedoms of anywhere!

    @m9105826: Sean Hannity and Bill O'reilly and Glenn Beck are proof that our healthcare is the best. Can any other nation brag that they have as many walking and talking abortions as we do?

    The watch needs to stop ticking when I do.

    My spirit won't be able to rest without that poignant moment when whomever discovers my corpse says something existential about how it was my time to go....

    Better than my faux "Soviet Military" watch by Gruen that I got in 89'. That POS crapped out after a year.
