How long does it usually take for lsat proctor to get more supplies of their watch? It seems like it's been a long time now that they haven't had it in stock.

Go to walmart or other similarly shitty department store, and buy a watch that has a built in chronograph. Rotating a bezel is TTT. With a chronograph you'll know when time is up, down to the second.

Can someone tell me what "TTT" stands for?

I checked walmart and target, and I actually had a hard time finding a watch with a chronograph. I eneded getting a little batman watch for 10 bucks that didnt have any bezel. It worked fine for me, but I dont recommend this for people with timing issues.

I used Amazon.com because I'm an internet nerd. Amazon was great. I wanted a chronograph with a second hand, but with leather bands to avoid getting air hair in metal band. And I found one for 30 bucks. It was great.

can someone post a pic of the type of watch we're talking about here. i have been using a silent timer forever, just to get the timing down, but i need to pick up a watch soon.

what is the best watch that everyone seems to know about except good ol' dannyboy?

LSAT proctor's watches go in and out of stock. What I did was give them my email to alert me when the watches became available, and in about a week I was notified they were back in stock. I placed my order and got the watch in less than a week.

Oh, I see what you did there.

i bought a fancy casio analog watch with stopwatch function at Walmart for around 60 bucks for the LSAT the day before my test date. it worked perfectly n with knowing exactly how many minutes/seconds left, i found myself a little bit calmer during the test

I spent $40 bucks for a Casio that has a chronograph. $40 is cheap to ensure that you know, to the second, how much time is left. Plus, it is now an exercising/outdoor work watch!

Is a watch with chronograph permitted to use by the actual LSAT?

whats the advantage of the Lsat proctor watch?

There is no need to have a rotating bezel. Simply set an analog watch to 12:00 and start it when time starts. Reset it for each section.

Some people have indicated that the 15 or so seconds you have between sections can sometimes be inadequate to reset those watches, grab your new pencils, clear mind, etc. Being able to reset the stopwatch with the push of a button makes for one less potential cause for concern.

can we use Ana-Digi Dual Time Watch at a test?

I'd just like to share my LSAT Proctor watch Simugator.com experience. Their product is horrible:
1. the bezel only spins one way (which is somewhat normal) but...
2. the bezel is impossible to turn quickly or easily (think in between LSAT sections)
3. their product is cheap looking and feeling. It seems that they have priced an 8 dollar watch for much more just to take advantage of stressed out LSAT students
4. their customer service is awful. A sales person said the following in an email to me when I was trying to return a NEW watch that I had only tried on, after I had alerted him of my rights to post about their company on TLS or BBB:
"It is also worth noting that our Terms of Purchase, which you agreed to before purchasing the watch, expressly state that we do not accept damaged or used merchandise. As you will learn in law school, you have a duty to read all contracts that you enter into—your disagreement with our return policy does not make it invalid. Also, the accusation of unconscionability, legally, is outright unfounded.
I understand that this may be a stressful time in preparation for the exam; however, I would like to caution that threats of blackmail or extortion are never a good choice, especially for a prospective law student."

Even though they eventually let me return it: Avoid at all costs.
