lets you offset the second hand before you start the timer to say give yourself i 5 second lead in. i assume the usage is anytime you need to start the tachymeter at a specific time but also need your hands free.

I'd love an Omega, but can't justify it. I've got a Ti Citizen Ecodrive that's awesome but sits on the shelf, my old quartz Seiko is my daily beater. I can't justify over 400-500 on a watch

BTW - anyone want to buy a slightly used bulova?
I've got a Bulova Marine Star 96C100 that i NEVER wear anymore as it's kind of redundant... it just got back from Bulova for warranty repair, quartz movement was just repaired for day/date function, case was re-sealed and the battery was replaced. i purchased it new in July and have the warranty papers.
MSRP is $250, froogle.com has an average price of $180 new, ebay has an average price of about $170 new.
mine has some wear and tear scratches, but nothing that couldn't be buffed out or cleaned up with a scotch-brite pad.
