Dear all, many times I thought of a stopwatch that allows timing a sight by just freezing the digital display by push of a button, while, of course, the watch runs on. Another push of the button should then reset the displayed time to the actual moment... It seemed this was not available at all with small electonic devices. Now I discovered this http://www.tagheuer-timing.com/_imgtiming/Specifications/Microsplit.pdf the description reads "...allows the measurement and memorization of times at the time-of-day..." I wonder if this awfully expensive thing (~160$) would at least offer what I was looking for? Does anybody know any details (I couldn't find a manual on the web) or any other device of this kind?
