Ronstan has upped its racing game with its Clear Start watches, which incorporate “race mode” features such as countdown and count-up options. It also has a resynchronization feature and pre-programmed race sequence sounds, and can be programmed for custom countdown sequences. The digital display is large, so you don’t have to let go of the helm to read the time, and the buttons won’t catch on your sleeve while sailing. This watch is fun and sporty and comes in several colors.
