SIMPLE WATCH. NOT AS GOOD AS TIMEX

Stopwatch have split timing which will record each mile/kilometre.
Doesn`t give average time per mile/kilometre which is a shame.
This is a good value watch. It has all the basics. 5 alarms, timer, stopwatch which records each mile and stores this. When using the stopwatch you can view it in total time running with split time underneath or the other way round. Its not as good as the Timex and can be improved. But I like it anyway.

CHEAP!

+Smallish size
+Relatively low price
+Does the job without too many superflous features
+Looks quite cool for the price
+Clear display
+Memory (didn't know I needed his when I bought it)
- Countdown timer start time can only be set in whole minutes
- This type of plastic strap is probably quite weak anyway without having "stylish" triangles cut out them
- Start/stop and lap/split buttons are not easy to press, even with small fingers (the design is probably trying to avoid acidental presses but has gone too far)
- configuring the distance "guestimation" feature with stride length and pace would have been far easier with a single average speed setting
Bought this as a complete beginner. Now I know a bit more about what I need from a stop watch I think this will do me just fine for the forseeable future.

GREAT WATCH FOR THE PRICE.

Price. Functions - lap/split and 61 record memory, plus a pacing mode. Once calibrated to your stride length, it'll measure your distance, too.
Display could be larger, the start/stop and lap/split buttons are actually suprisingly hard to press! The styling is also a bit, er, functional...
Great for the price - I'm sure I'll stick with it for a good while yet. In fact, the only reason for me to upgrade is for something which looks better (shallow, I know!).
