When I first saw the Karma had a stopwatch, I thought to myself "Stopwatch !!! What the hell would I want that for ???"

Now I've seen it I'm thinking "mmm Stopwatch, what can I use that for"

Any ideas what I can use it for, a feature that good and well done can't go unused !!! I love it when it pops up with the average lap time.

What does everyone else use it for ???

Cheers

Cris.

i use it when jogging. one thing that i would like to see is ease of use for the stopwatch to go up. and to use the rotary knob press for starting and stopping the time. it took me some time, but i finally figured out how to do everything with the stopwatch. (i think)

Thanks for that, regrettably, with my lifestyle, I couldn't think of any reason why I needed a Karma, now I can tell Mrs.B: "You know how you've been wanting a kitchen timer for the boiled eggs".

I am pleased you all like the stopwatch, and particularly that you find that it is 'well done'

I agree that the control functionality could be extended to make use of the extra buttons and knobs on Karma - Currently it is consistent with all products in our range that sport a stopwatch (in terms of control anyway).

Other stopwatch enhancements I would like to make include the saving of lap timings for import to a PC.
