If you need a good watch with a really visible countdown, I can only recommend the M3 (watch not compass) or Regatta, Mariner,Yachtsman. The latter come with all the fancy stuff like compass and baro, while the former is more or less a watch with a very, very sophisticated timer. It really depends what you need it for. I have all of them...just ask and maybe I can hel you...if its still an issue, that is.

	Suunto M3 - Click for more info In competitive sailing and windsurfing, getting a good start is about being in the right place at the right time. Suunto M3 helps make sure that that is exactly where you are. To get you to the right place on the start line - and at the right time, Suunto M3 not only helps you to determine the favored end of the start line, but it also displays the time to the start line in connection with the start timer to help you cross the line at just the right moment.

	Compass Compasses are sensitive, absolutely crucial instruments to precision navigation. The earth's magnetic field, inclination, and your longitude and latitude all influence the horizontal plane of a compass needle. As a result, compasses are balanced for different geographical zones. Suunto Compasses overcome this limitation to traditional compasses by using a simple 'Two Zone System'. With a Suunto Compass, the only 'balancing zones' are the northern and southern hemispheres. In addition to this innovation, certain Suunto Compasses come equipped with useful features like luminous needles and marks, centimeter/inch scales, magnifying glasses, clinometers, sighting notches, and more.
