So what is the point of a 100 day capacity stopwatch? Because the module can? Has anyone found a good use for this? Timing how long you've been sober for the 12 step crowd? Timing duration aboard the ISS or keeping track of how long your kimchi is fermenting? I am not criticizing this somewhat impressive feature, I just wonder what are the useful applications.

No answer to your question but I asked myself more then once the same. I say Casio should have split it and spend the other half to the CDT - that would be awesome :-d


cheers

You can make a chronograph that runs as long as the battery remains alive and the screen has appropriate display area, but from a practical aspect it's useless because once you started that chronograph you won't be able to use it for any other purpose.

So a 100-hour stopwatch or a 1000-hour stopwatch is a sort of fun, it can't be practical unless you have a dual-stopwatch watch.

A 100 day CDT would make more sense--I usually am more concerned about when I will leave rather than how long I've been somewhere. Deployments come to mind. How many days until Christmas even.

I think the "mission timer aboard ISS" is actually the best idea :-d. The Omega X-33 has a mission timer, but I don't know for how long it runs. There was one Casio with an even longer stopwatch - the TRT-101H - it had 10,000 hrs (roughly 416.7 days).

I couldn't imagine who on Earth would need 10,000 hours

Me neither - but why are there cars with more than 100hp? :-d:-d

Excessive? Yes.

G-Shock is excessive but I am not complaining

Doesn't the 7900 have two 1000-hr chronos? :-! I say, the more/bigger the merrier. "Hell, don't cost nothin.'"

(Bonus points for identifying the quoted movie reference.)

Absolutly essential since when one says to me "nice watch" I can answer "yes, and it has a 100 days stopwatch b-)"
