I have one as a watch bezel that I use in a pinch. Anything you need to scale, divide, or multiply in the real word doesn't need more than 2 significant digits of precision so it works. For example, I've used it to calculate how many grams of coffee will give me a 1:16 to the amount of water/coffee I want.
