Referees' watches

[crossref]

I've ante'd up to the timex HRM trainer, with a massive display and touch-sensor:

cool watch
does it have a vibrate option?
I was worried by some reviews that said the touch sensitive screen was too sensitive, and could get 'pressed' by rain, or accidental contact with your clothing. A bit risky in a rugby-game where it's not unknown to have slight contact with players.

I use this:-

Attachment 2199

Phil E spotted them on Amazon for £20 (the tight get) a few years ago - so I swooped (the tight get)

I think they are about £40-£50

I like the vibrate - set it for 42 mins as above

I also like that the stop watch runs at elapsed time (lower reading) and stop/start time upper reading.

I have two of the Casio Referee Timers.

The spec of the Spintso watch sounds really good.

I met a bloke last season who'd had one for two years and didn't know it had a vibrate function!!!

No vibrate option.

It allows you to adjust the sensitivity of the "tap", so it has not become an issue in games so far (though I havent yet refereed in the rain).

No thanks, missing a vibrate function

Just give one of these to your advisor, He'll let you know when time is up!

I use the Casio Referee watch on one wrist, and have my Garmin 110 on the other to track my pace and distance.
