Nike Triax.
Hands down.
If it doesn't cost at least $450, it's probably no good.
if it has a timer its good enough.
you don't have to have a fancy watch to store your times, just write them down in your training log after.
running watches don't make people faster, more running makes you faster.
don't buy one that costs more than 30 dollars.
30 dollar timex ironman from walmart - they usually last several years, and do the job of timing just as fine as any expensive watch.

I agree, the Nike Triax 100 is the best watch I've ever owned.

I've bought my Nike Triax watches off of ebay for $35-$40 total so I think it's a great buy.

i've had mine for 12. the battery died last month for just the 2nd time in those 12 years, i think. maybe 3rd. gone through only 1 watch band and now the current one. new battery this weekend, and should be good to go for who knows how much longer.

Is it easy to view the split info after you've finished running?
I've been a Timex Ironman watch wearer since the 90s when (then) Gov. Clinton negotiated with Timex to keep their Ironman plant in the US (Arkansas), rather than pump them out in China or Mexico.
It's a really good watch, too.
