My lovely wife bought me a new tripod head for Christmas so it would be rude not to try it out...

Have you been tempted to try it out yet?

I really could not own that watch - test mode or not, I would HAVE to know...

The transmitter in the Emergency is not strong enough for the satellites to pick it up anyway:

It's to aid rescues to home in on your location assuming they already know to come looking for you.

Would be handy if you miss the last bus home on a night out. One simple twist and a support chopper comes to your rescue! biggrin

yes

Some website said:
In 1995 the Breitling Emergency wristwatch saved the lives of 13 people aboard the Mata-Rangi raft.
You wouldn't want to activate the beacon down the pub though ... Hefty fines!
