Does this watch have a count down time similar to those on the basic Timex sports watches?

Yes it does. With three options when finishing the countdown: Stopping, restart or star the chronometer.

I am no expert on the Timex but from using it my impression is that it gives real time pace information averaged over a few minutes. It does not change pace instantaneously as you run, but it does adjust in a way that suggests short term averaging. Hope this helps.

The watch has two stop watch / chromo functions for timing your workouts. I have been disappointed with the heart rate function

Yes it does count up. Just press the START half of the stop/start button. It also allows you to stop, and then resume from that time forward by pressing the Start again. Its a handy stopwatch tool.

yes, but it does not show the count down. If you set the timer it will show the count down for 5 seconds and then reverts to the time..so you never really know how long you have until it beeps. Stupid way to do it and really not very useful.

Yes! When it is used as an additive counter there is an "up" arrow displayed above the seconds. Of course it will only count up to 99:99:99.

YES! the time actually shows up on TWO screens, the initial one (which is a summary that shows date, TIME and steps), and one that shows TIME and battery usage which you can program to show in the order you prefer (as you can program all the screens in the order you want). Hope this info is useful or if not, consider de ACTIVITE watch!

I cannot answer specifically. But I ordered this and it did not work with my Timex watch. I would contact Timex. I have the Ironman Triathlon 200 Lap w/Digital Heart Rate Monitor. It seemed as if it should work but I couldn't get them to sync. I know it doesn't answer, but I would say check with Timex to be sure.

Yes. The strap around your mid-section is barely noticeable which measures your heart rate. The watch itself is about that same size as any other sport watch.

No. It has a stop/start button to activate the timer. But if it has the same battery life that my old sportline had you will get 6 years out of it.

Its been a while since I've used that watch but I don't recall seeing a countdown timer.

It always counts down seconds. On the timer at least. I haven't used the "count-up" feature.

You can use it like a standard stopwatch. I don't know if it rolls over on counting up, but there is a one digit day position on the stopwatch function, so it might count up to 9 days, 59 minutes, 59 seconds. I bought it specifically for the countdown feature, which works very well. You can check on their website for more specifics.

Yes, it does. I do not know why some others here responded that it does not, I have tested this and it tracks automatically even if you turn the watch on and off.

I do not use the watch feature. I find it hard enough just to use the odometer. I'm not very happy with the product.

Thanks for your inquiry! The sports timer is a count-up and count-down timer that is suitable for most exercise routines. Hope that answers your question! Thanks again! Corinne - RLT Source

No - it does not tell time. I find it is an excellent times for my stretching exercises!
