ULTRAK 360 Stopwatch – Dual Split Memory Timer, Electro-Luminescent Display, Water-Resistant Sports Watch, Calendar and Alarm Timepiece, Coach's Training Tool

A solid stopwatch that is very easy to carry and use while running. Lives up to expectations and is more than worth its cost. Pros: Buttons don't double click, lights up on-click for 3 secs but very useful, recalls with laps and split times, buttons work perfectly (no double-clicking), quick and easy to use instructions, basically a stopwatch that comes with everything you need and doesn't fail to expectations. Cons: Lanyard seems to be a shoelace and batteries are probably drained halfway since there is power button.

Before I get into my explanation of the problem that I have with this stopwatch, I will mention that it seems to be a quality product. I've used it for a couple of weeks now, and I really think that it's one of the better stopwatches out there, especially for the price. The buttons seem solid, they beep each time you push them, and the backlight is invaluable if it's twilight or dark. Also the 2-1/2 inch diameter fits well in my hand. Now the problem. I bought this stopwatch because it tracked laps. I thought that I would use it to track my walking intervals. I usually do 20 intervals at 45 seconds each. I typically lose track of how many I've completed during my walk, but since this stopwatch tracks laps, I thought that I could simply click the lap button every 45 seconds, and I'd easily know when I'd completed 20 laps. Unfortunately, this stopwatch doesn't reset the moving display to zero when tracking laps. Instead, the total time elapsed just keeps going. So, when I press the lap button, the top static display shows approximately 45 seconds, but the bottom moving display keeps going instead of resetting to zero. So, I have to add another 45 seconds in my head to know that I need to press the lap button at 1 m 30 secs, and then again at 2m 15 sec, and so on. Each time I push the lap button, the top display indicates my new lap time, and increases the lap number by one. The split timer actually works a little bit better for this since it keeps a cumulative time, and then all I have to do is add 45 seconds to the cumulative split time to know when to push the split button again. But still, I have to calculate in my head when to push the split time button using the total time. The only alternative is to push the stop button at the end of 45 seconds, push the reset button to reset the moving display to zero, push the start button, and then repeat the process when the timer reaches 45 seconds. This is the way I prefer the moving display to work, except that this method doesn't keep track of the number of laps since I'm resetting both displays each time. So, once again, I'm losing track of the number of intervals that I'm doing, and that was the whole purpose of buying this stopwatch in the first place. To overcome this, I use my wrist watch to determine when 15 minutes has elapsed, and then I know that I've done my 20 intervals. I understand that the stopwatch needs to track total time for most applications that it's used for, but it would be nice if it had an option that would track total time in the background, while it reset the moving display to zero each time. Then I could simply push the lap button every time the moving display reached 45 seconds, and I would be finished when the lap counter hit 20. Sorry for all the detail, but I read all the reviews before I bought this and nothing was mentioned about how the displays actually worked. I hope this helps someone, because if I could've read this in a review, I would not have purchased this stopwatch. By the way, if anyone knows of a stopwatch that tracks laps and resets the moving display to zero after each lap, I'm all ears.

This is by far the best stop watch I have ever used for training. The buttons have never been 'touchy', and always start and stop the watch, or enter splits, with no errors. It also allows for a display of fractions of a second beyond the first 1/2 hr or 1 hr of time, a feature a lot of watches do no have. The split feature is incredibly useful. There are a large number available, surely more than most will use in their training. All of the splits are recorded to an accuracy of less than a second, just like the normal watch function, and it evens shows the elapsed time between splits. I would highly recommend this watch to any serious athlete.

I love the feel of this stopwatch. The buttons are very crisp and clicky. It is just right. BUT the quality of mine is junk. I have not used this much, maybe 20 times and it looks like the attached. The LCD artifacts appeared within 6 months. This has only been used by myself and has never been dropped or had more than a few raindrops on it. As a replacement I will try another brand.

I have 10 of these. ...all broke. I bought in bulk...great at the beginning eventually the buttons freeze up.,

First of all it is so accurate that I think my reaction time may be making it off. It has an alarm for taking it on the road. Consider it your portable alarm clock that you can hang on your neck. It has a light which I use mainly for unlocking my car door in the morning. It has the time, so if you don't have your cell phone, you can still know the time. It is compact and most people don't know what it is when you're using it. It works great.

I just started running a few months ago and still do several intervals of walking rests between periods of running. I wanted to be able to accurately track the time intervals and use it to calculate distance run out of the total. I purchased this stopwatch to record running time vs. walking time, and the lap function works well to track this information. A pushbutton on the side turns a backlight on/off for night viewing. The size fits nicely in my palm and it comes with a cord to hang around the neck. The face shows you both the total time (lower) and the time of the last interval (upper), as well as the lap (or interval) number, and the digits are large enough to read easily. I've used the timer for about 3 months now and had shopped for awhile before deciding on this one, and I'm very happy with my decision. For the price, this was a good value for all the features.

Great stopwatch! Does what it says it does and does it well. Buttons are nice and crisp to push - nice tactile click gives good feedback. The beeping on every start/stop was bugging me and I stopped using it for a while. When I started using it again and was changing batteries, I realized that the two springs inside the back cover are part of the power circuit for the beeper. I put a piece of non-conductive tape over one of the springs, and now the stopwatch functions without the beeps. Wonderful. I just wish the beep could be easily disabled with a push of a button so it can easily be turned on/off during use.

Buen reloj, me ha funcionado bastante bien. Precio razonable

I have purchased a few inexpensive stop watches over the years. All have disappointed, but I can't justify paying $$$$ for a professional watch. This Ultrak is possibly the best stop watch in its price range. The buttons have a good resistance with a solid click making starting and stopping precisely when you want. HINT: Search online for the Ultrak 360 manual. Although many of the functions are intuitive, and clearly marked, some are arcane. For example to get to the alarm you press button E three times, and then to cancel the alarm you press D once. It's not rocket science, but you'll pull your hair out trying to guess at the less obvious options. Great stopwatch at a good price.

This thing is able to count how long it takes your fat jiggly thighs to run you in circles. Amazing. Light, kinda large but I'm a big fat dude so it doesn't matter. Great for checking progress on laps or marathon training, water(resistant) and hardy in case your clumsy obesity-ridden sausage fingers drop it on pavement, and even has alarms, a clock/calendar and decent backlight for late-night jogs. Works great, love it. Buy it.

For timing sporting events with multiple laps and competitors, this watch has the basics without adding unnecessary frills that get in the way. Easy to ready display, straight forward recall with ability to cycle thru memory up or down, whether watch is running or stopped. Looks visually similar to some other watches (Oslo is one) but this is completely different design and well-made inside. Very good value for the price. Only con is that sometimes trying to capture two splits very close together (under 0.15 sec) the second button press is missed.
