great referee watch

I use this clock as a referee in American football. The preset countdown times are for all leagues (incl. Young) ideal. 10, 12, 15, ..... 45 minutes etc. So also for friends of the round ball sport.

The problem would be, times of Quarters (Football) should change. So you should even play 4x11 minutes, this clock would not manage to because the default functions do not permit a change.

Work on colleagues (Football) with the Play Clock (40/25 seconds): there is a separate timer, where you can adjust itself. However, can not choose between the two variants is. You have to find his own attitude, which fits an as with any clock. I work in principle with just 25 seconds. This I pay five seconds after beeping time to give the signals for the last 10 seconds and no longer needs at the clock.

Pro / Contra at a glance:
+ Many preset countdown times (in minutes!), Which facilitates the changing enormously
+ Time very readable
+ For the holiday useful, because you (depending on what time zone) can set the time zone with a few clicks. Rome, NY, Dubai, LA, Moscow, London, ....
+ When the countdown time has elapsed, the clock will beep and then run up again. For football referee certainly convenient (injury time).

- Preset countdown minutes can not be changed (for example, instead of 12 minutes for 11 minutes)
- The clock reveals a very very quiet that you have pressed the Start / Stop button. Depending on background noise at the box requires a visual inspection. Maybe then this second is absent in the concentration at the field.

For me fit price and performance. Weaknesses of the clock as mentioned above.
