Marathon ADANAC Digital Glow Stopwatch Timer for Teachers Fitness Sport Coaches - Large Display, Blue Backlight, Water, Dust, and Shock Resistant (Black) Review

Bought for the 'big' or display only to find the fractional seconds are shown in tiny numbers above the larger hours, minutes and seconds. Despite the so-called "giant" display, I still need glasses to read fractions of a second.

Had to return. The stopwatch didn't work (I couldn't get it to change the dates of the week). He had other problems too. I called the seller's contact number 3 times and left him a call back number for a call back; he never did. Take a good car, Bizhan.

JUST WANTED TO REPLACE TIME AS TIME PASSED MY MEASURED COURSE. THE ##@&**! Thing frustrated me for 20 minutes while trying to reinstall it. Then it just started chirping at random intervals and I couldn't figure out how to turn it off. It came without a helpful instruction manual.

One star down because the battery is dead. It was fairly easy to set the date/time/alarm. The alarm clock is very quiet. It would be difficult to hear any background noise. I wish you could leave the backlight on and it would be nice if you could turn it off completely. It does the job I bought it for and I'm happy with it.

I am completely satisfied with this stopwatch. The display is large and clear, and the backlight allows you to use it even in low light. The buttons are easy to use and fairly intuitive. It comes with clear instructions. This was helpful as I couldn't find a manual online. The only downside I noticed is that the curved plastic screen seems to pick up unwanted reflections more than a flat panel. Overall I think this is a great stopwatch.

The stopwatch works well. However, the instructions that came with it were totally inadequate. Nothing about how to set the clock or alarm. I even went to the manufacturer's website and asked for full instructions but never got a response from them. Through trial and error, I finally figured out how to turn off the alarm, turn off the hourly time signal, and set the correct time. Now it works really well and helps me keep track of my walk time.

Good stopwatch. I use it for stretching at the gym. The best features are the backlit display (which is activated by pressing the middle white button) and the large (easy to read) numbers. The instructions aren't the best. I can't figure out how to set an alarm, but that's fine since I don't use it as an alarm. Basically, the standard buttons and functions are the same as on other stopwatches. When you press the white button, the backlight turns on for about 3 seconds. If you hold down the…

I hope this will be a 5 star product but when I received it there was no display (as noted by another reviewer) but the light worked. I went and bought a new CR2032 battery, removed 5 tiny back screws (my jeweler's Phillips screwdriver) and it burst into life! A couple of things - it had to run without maintenance and secondly, if it's "waterproof" by accepted consumer standards I'd be amazed. I would be amazed. Don't buy it with the expectation that it will last for years in a humid…
