  • In a time of calculators, computers, smart phones and the internet, the answer to any question is never more than a few taps of a screen or clicks of a button away. Remember when you had to just know who was in a movie, or what that song was? Before then, before all of that, there was a time when complex calculations were only achievable by hand or with a slide rule. It’s a skill that’s been lost over generations, but today we’re going to find out how, exactly, this mess of lines and numbers actually works.

    Being able to work this around your friends when you need to split the bill at the restaurant will guarantee you some heightened sense of superiority.

    Can you imagine at the next dinner party explaining all this to the girls. I hope they'll be impressed.

    No wonder plane crashes were much more common back then... this is far worse than texting while driving!

    Being an airline pilot, I must tell you few things... That’s one thing you must learn as a pilot for calculations by an E6B slide rule. Unfortunately getting bloody old you can’t see a damn thing on the bezel...

    It's incredible how much knowledge is lost in one generation. My dad was an engineer and I had once opened up his old trunk containing engineering books and yes, a slide rule. Never understood how to use it and it pains me to think I'll never be able to explain it to my kids without resorting to a RUclips video.

    Exam today: Teachers tells the whole class to put their smartphones on the front desk and take off their smart/apple watches.

    Now I see why these are called "Complications"...

    I'm studying Commercial Aviation at UND and when I heard about this watch, I immediately took out my E6B (aviation's version of a slide ruler) and lo and behold... that watch is pretty much identical.
