Spintso Referee Watch

It is a great watch! Just watch the face of it - seems to be very easy to scratch! Haven't found anywhere that will replace it either

I have one too, and have been meaning to write a review on here for it.
There's a few things I don't like about it, but I do use it for pretty much all my games now because of two simple features:
1: The 10-sec reminder that you have stopped your watch
2: The count-up from 46 in the 2nd half - saves having to do mental arithmetix all the time!
If the RFT-100 had those two features I wouldn't have bothered with the Spintso, I love the Casio & keep it running continuous on my right wrist during games, so I get a 'reminder' buzz a couple of minutes before the Spintso.

It is big and heavy compared to the 'usual' watches, but then, it feels solid and very well-built. Not something I would wear as a day-to-day watch, like I do the RFT and the W756.
I've attached a pic which might help.
Most of the weight comes from the metal components such as the buttons, and part of the casing I believe. Also, a very chunky and secure strap.
I honestly can't fault it as a referee timer, but that is all it is.
Whereas the RFT and W756 come with me on training runs, using the interval timer, alarm function, the World Time mode is useful being an ex-pat, and are great as day-to-day watches.
