This is a great watch, compact, with lots of features.  I've had one for years!  There is a one-touch incremental"minute" timer in increasing times of 1, 3, 5, 10, 15, 20, 30, perfect for timing tasks.  That is my favorite feature.  There are also the more standard features of a stop-watch type timer, date, and alarm.  Besides all that, the silver band looks dressier than the black sporty one.
