Enhanced Visibility with Quick View Displays

All watches in the Clear Start™ collection feature larger digit displays for optimal visibility. The compact 40mm model showcases impressive 10mm (3/8”) digits.

Sync with Race Sequence

Starting a race precisely can be a challenge. Our SYNC function allows for quick resynchronization of the Clear Start™ to the official race time. A quick button press enables you to conveniently drop down to the next minute, ensuring your start sequence aligns perfectly at the next chance.

Sound Signals for Race Timing

Stay informed of your position in the start sequence without glancing at the display, thanks to pre-programmed sound signals. It includes World Sailing 5-4-1-0 sequences and can be customized for additional countdowns. Users can opt to silence the sound if needed.

Flexible Countdown or Count Up Options

Depending on preference, the watch can repeat the countdown automatically after the sequence ends—ideal for general recall restarts—or count up to monitor elapsed time.

Real-Time Multi-Line Display

No need to alternate between countdown and standard time; the multi-line display integrates both countdown and actual time concurrently.

Daily Functionality

The Clear Start™ series is not just for racing; it's suited for everyday use as well. Key functionalities include 12/24 hour format, date display options, daily alarm, and chronograph (stopwatch) features.

Illuminated Backlight

With a full-face electroluminescent backlight, reading at night is effortless. The light feature can be briefly activated for quick glances.
