FINIS Waterproof Stopwatch for Swim Training - 100 Split Memory - Stroke Rate Mode - Easy-Read Display

Great for swim timmer

I coach NCAA division 1 track and have tried out many stopwatches, and this one is what I stick with. This one works as good if not better than the $150 seiko stopwatches on the market.Sturdy build so it wont get smashed in a gym bag. The timing fuction is accurate to the milli seconds. The buttons have a nice press and click to them and dont feel like theyll get stuck like with cheaper options. The beeps are pretty nice. I’ve i only been using the stopwatch function, but Im not sure what other reason youd be buying a stopwatch for anyways.

Was excited to get this stopwatch. Then within weeks the timer button popped off, rendering the stopwatch useless. I wish the quality was higher (and that Finis provided replacement parts).HOWEVER, when i contacted Finis (a few months after the purchase date), they sent me a replacement right away. Great customer service!

As a swim coach, I have used a ton of different stopwatches over the years. This is by far the best watch that I've ever owned. It's durable, which is good because I tend to drop things when I am coaching on deck. Also there is a new feature on this specific stopwatch model that allows for a coach to take splits in a different mode than I had been used to. During a race, this mode allows the coach to take the split, which starts the new split at "0" so that you don't have to do any math in your head. This is good for me because I am horrible at math and this is great for lazy people like me. This is the only watch I use now.

I thought I would give this stop watch a try. I regret it. In typical finis style, the product is overpriced and shoddy. I opened the stop watch and it was working. By the time I got to practice to use it the screen was off and would not turn back on. Not easy to replace the battery either. Hands down the worst experience I've ever had with a stop watch and I'm a swim coach. You would do better burning the money you would spend on this watch to keep warm rather than buying this thing. I would say it makes a good paper weight, but it's too light for that. Just garbage.

Only thing is you can’t silence the beeps. Kind of annoying for my use with the watches other than that they work amazing

Having been a swim and triathlon coach for over 20 years, this is my go-to watch.It has a solid weight that I like to feel in my hand and fits perfectly in my hand. No strain or having to move it so my fingers can reach either button.Memory recall, while the watch is running, is a nice feature to make sure I can track splits correctly for my athletes.The options of display and running times are enough to fit any coach and any workout.

If you're buying a stopwatch, Finis is the only way to go. I purchased this stopwatch as a swim coach, and had absolutely no issues. This watch is effective at taking multiple splits, and is also water resistant. (That being said, I wouldn't submerge the watch in the water...).As a high school coach, the longest race I have to time is the 500, so I would imagine for longer races, like the mile, you will reach a split limit.Solid buy. Mine still works 5 years from purchase date.
