What time is it? Watches and horology

I find it much easier to hit a chrono button on one of my watches when timing something for cooking than tapping around on my phone..

But sure, fair point. My oven has a timer too.

By timing something how specific are you asking?

I’ve used mine to time how long
we were swimming in the sea,
my lengths took in a pool,
the pasta’s been cooking.

I have used the chrono for loads of other stuff too but real timing like a tool watch in a workshop or something, nope.

I find the rotating bezel way more useful for broad timekeeping, for example how long the washing has been on for, or how long the oven’s been cooking something, where split-second accuracy makes no difference.

I use mine all the time .
