Tissot T-Touch Countdown Timer?

[bquinlan]

Can anyone tell me whether the Tissot T-Touch features a countdown timer? It appears to have some inobvious features that are not mentioned on its web site, but I have not been able to find anything definitive. Does anyone know for sure? Or can you point me to an on-line manual?

Thanks!

Only functions are alarm, altimeter, barometer, chronograph, compass, and thermometer.

I have been trying to do research for you but it's tough because I am on dialup as I am home for the long weekend. Like grnamin said, those are the features. But you already knew that. You mentioned there are undocumented ones which I found quite surprising. Like what?

Anyway, based on that theory, I have been searaching and I have reviews and different sites that have it for sale but none mentioned countdown. I am a bit surprised that it doesn't have it though, since all my digital watches have a countdown. Some are pre-set and some are customizable, but they all have them.

Will post more information if I find it.

I really appreciate that, but don't go to too much trouble. I've been doing a similar search around the web, but I was hoping to find someone who actually had the watch and would know.

My basis for wondering about hidden features is that several mini-reviews have mentioned options that were buried in the manual and not obvious. I'm not sure how significant they are...

As far as countdown timers, I use mine constantly and have never understood why advanced watches don't always include them, but they don't. Casio lost my business several years ago when they largely stopped including them on their models. Suunto seems to have recently gone the same way. A lot of otherwise powerful electronic watches just don't have that options. sigh

Thanks again for the help!
