I use the stopwatch primarily for timing student presentations. I havent had to change the battery once in over 5 years. Amazing! On: 2009-03-27
This one attempts to be a stopwatch, clock, alarm, and calendar; it cannot do any of these functions well. Every one of these functions get messed up because of the haphazard "mode" button. To Switch between the clock and the stopwatch, you have to go through the alarm set mode, then the clock setting mode; this causes you to set the alarm for 1:00AM and to reprogram the time! Moreover, it is not rugged enough to survive a long jog without getting messed up. Very annoying, inaccurate, and worthless! On: 2008-02-09
Product is excellent and exceeded my expectations! I would definately suggest/ recommend this product to anyone! On: 2007-11-20
In the instruction manual for this stopwatch, it says, "Chime is ON when dashes appear above display. Chime is OFF when no dashes appear."
Unfortunately, the instructions are lying. The alarm on this watch will go off, regardless of dash situation. There is absolutely no way to turn off the alarm. If you are there to turn the alarm off at the same time every day, then this watch is a decent purchase. Everything else on it works well. On: 2007-08-09
The stopwatches lost their battery life within 1-2 weeks. They constantly went off for no reason and it was not very easy to use. The ones that didnt die, served their purpose. On: 2007-01-10
Now that my elementary school aged girls are taking timed tests this has been great for timing their homework. It is easy to use and seems to take a lot of abuse. On: 2006-08-15
This is such a great stopwatch. It is so much fun to play with. The timing is incredible, and has features such as a clock and a calender. It is a very easy using stopwatch and I love it! On: 2006-06-27
I was looking for a good stopwatch to help me with my training and figured I would give this inexpensive product a go. It was fairly simple to set and it worked well until I noticed that the clock was falling behind. I reset it and slowly it fell behind again. I went and bought a new battery and it still fell behind. I am looking at it right now after reseting it for the last time a couple of weeks ago and it is almost 15 minutes behind. With the clock being so off, it makes me wonder how accurate the other modes are. I either recieved a shody stopwatch or some reconfiguring needs to be done by the manufacturer.
Update 09/02/2006:
Was cleaning out my desk and came upon my stopwatch(dont ask me why I still have it). I was delt another hard blow when I looked at the clock again. It hasnt fallen behind this time. No, instead it is twenty minutes fast. I am incredibly disturbed by this. I believe I will go lie down and try to forget about this Oh So traumatic experience.
