Proving that I'll buy anything with a Tamiya logo on it, this stopwatch arrived in the post before Christmas, but I could't be bothered to post it until now

To be fair, I did need a countdown timer & thought it had that feature ... but it doesn't - just a timer with a single split feature, alarm & clock (including day of the week). It seems reasonable accurate, it's lost (assuming I set it perfectly in the first place) 15 seconds in 7-8 weeks.

Box is plain white card, "instructions" are a photocopied sheet & neither have a makers name, country of origin, etc, and apart from the Tamiya logo, neither does the stopwatch ... got to wonder about its provenance really :whistle:

Measure the diameter and thickness of the cell, or the pocket the cell would fit, and maybe you can work out which battery is the correct one?
More info here: en.wikipedia.or...utton_cell
