If you need a stop watch, etc. just use your phone. Everyone has one, and most phones have lap times, etc. which is better. Why would you need 4 different dials packed into a little watch to tell you certain things? > > That’s just me though. Too each his own. The dials are all for the same thing pretty much. The dial on the left is for the second hand. The big orange hand on the main dial is the second hand for the chronograph, and the other two dials are also for the chronograph if it goes over a certain amount of time. I’d much rather have a watch that has excess features and is accurate than one that lacks an essential feature and is inaccurate. --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/watches/237295)._
