MARATHON Adanac 4000 Digital Sports Stopwatch Timer (Color - Yellow)-Extra Large Display & Buttons- Water Resistant-Two Year Warranty- Time & Calendar- Split Mode- Laser Tuned-Stop Watches for Coaches

This is a great stop watch. Big numbers making it easy to read, easy to use - spot on.

This is just great. Battery still going easy to use and read the clear display even in strong daylight..

This stopwatch is very similar to a previous stopwatch that I had that lasted several years. I like the bright yellow casing as it's easy to locate. I also prefer the flat plastic push buttons as these feel nicer than small metal ones.I wouldn't call the display 'extra large'. It's sufficient in most lighting conditions. There is no backlight.The instructions are just about okay but you have to read some parts a few times to figure out how to do certain things. You can set the date and time, and it has an alarm function too. This is all in addition to a stopwatch function that features a split time function.There is NO countdown timer if that is important to you.One bug that you should be aware of is that the row of day names at the top of the display is visible when the stopwatch function is involved. Worse still, some of those days flash randomly and this is a little distracting when using the stopwatch but it's not a deal-breaker for me.I opened up the back case to see how to change the battery. You have to undo seven small Philips screws so you'll need a very small Philips type of screwdriver. I had a set of jeweller's screwdrivers and found one that did the job. Be careful to align the back case very carefully so that the three push buttons are not fouled when screwing the back case in. The battery this takes is an LR44 battery.It comes with a 2-year guarantee and there's a tiny note supplied with this stopwatch that contains details of who to contact should you need to use the guarantee.There's a decent-sized lanyard supplied if you want to wear this stopwatch around your neck.

Easy to use, good display. No use at all for doing split times but for the cost it's fine.

Its a quality product for the money.

Great little stop watch that’s easy to use and ready

Product arrived very promptly. It was packaged in a manner that allowed Royal mail to post through the letter box (big positive). All very smooth and efficient items meet my expectation and need.

This Stopwatch .. seems suitable quality .. it’s definitely mid range quality .. but does the job well .. only criticism is when you need to change the batteries .. you have to undo loads of small screws, so for those with not nimble fingers you may struggle

I got this to use at work and I'm very happy with it! It's the perfect size to fit in the palm of my hand and the numbers are big enough to be seen easily at arm's length. The lanyard is a good length, but note that it's not a closed loop and you will have to tie it. (The way I have it tied in the pictures is wrong. The two strings are supposed to be knotted together.)It's a bit more complex than I needed, but the extra features aren't a negative, they're just not relevant to me. Setting up the date and time (which you don't have to do) was complicated and I had to read the instructions a few times before I got it figured out, but the stopwatch is simple to use otherwise. I've been using it as a clock and timer for a few days and I haven't had any problems after the initial set-up.It does beep when you press the buttons (and also has an optional alarm and hourly chime) but I removed the sound plate (last pic) since I need to be as unobtrusive as possible while timing students. It's lightly glued on to the back cover and I just pried it off with my finger. It looks easy to glue back in if necessary.The body and buttons of the stopwatch are sturdy, not at all flimsy. The buttons are a little stiff, but I think that will help to avoid any accidental button pushes. Overall, I think this will likely last through many years of work!

Diese Stoppuhr ist äußerst robust und verfügt über alle grundlegenden Funktionen. Dank ihrer auffälligen Farbe kann ich sie jetzt sogar in schwarzen Sporttaschen leicht finden.

Has all the functions I need. Not hard to operate.

Reasonably priced, built quality more than adequate, easy to operate.So why not a perfect score?There is one feature that neither this, nor any other similar stopwatch has, and it is the ability to "freeze" not only elapsed time from some arbitrary point ("start of race") but to momentarily freeze the "clock time".Even current hardware would work with a very small change in software:, as follows:In "wall clock" mode "C" button is used to display date, and "B" button freezes the display with time in the same format as is that used for stop watch (i.e., 1/100 sec resolution). subsequent press of the same button resumes normal clock display. (To find out the alarm time mode has to be advanced to Alarm).There is a number of both sports AND industrial applications for this feature.

Really confusing settings, but otherwise good quality stop watch.
