Swimming Pool Watch Sl500 Distance Lengths Chronometer, Black

I was looking for a watch that could keep track of my distance whilst swimming as I was finding myself occasionally loosing count. Most of the watches are around the �200 mark which is about the same as what I pay to use the pool for the year so this one seemed more in my price range. Setting it up was simple but unfortunately it just isn't any good at tracking distance. I swim about 1250 metres per session. The first time I used it was behind by about 150. The second time it was over by about 175. I continued using it hoping it just needed to be broken in. The forth time I used it it was 275 metres over what I had swam! With that, I do not recommend it.

Idid everything right but it just wont count laps,it did halfway through swim then stopped.Also i saw a tom cruise film where he disarmed a nuclear bomb, it was easier than trying to follow this watches instructions,and im an electronic technician! sending it back.

I am a regular swimmer crawl and brass, crawl length are counted brass totally ignored...for rest it is OK for a cheap ish watch very limited features...have had it for 4 days only but suspect battery will be an issue since e there is no off buttons, buy cheap buy twice my mum always used to say!
