For example, a pilot's watch must withstand rapid temperature changes and changes in ambient pressure up to 0.044 bar – equivalent to an altitude of about 21,300 metres. A pilot's watch is thus subjected to several thousand pressure change cycles in order to simulate the actual stress conditions on a pilot's wrist.
