My 695 will do 140 no problem.  kph?  I mean, it's only about 87mph... and it's sold in Greece.

On a big down hill I hit 135 (indicated which really means 128mph with 6% speedo error)... A 696 will hit 140mph if you drop it out of the back of a plane.

So if you drop a 696 out of the back of a plane with you on it, shouldn't it say: Life begins at 140 and then ends when you hit the ground?
