Best sailing watches: 16 options for racing and cruising
- June 9, 2024
Marine Tech Editor Fox Morgan has created a short list of 16 of the best sailing watches on the market. There's a range to suit all budgets and sailing needs, from a basic time waterproof timekeeper to a top of the range smart watch. There something for everyone, from racing to cruising sailors.
The best sailing watches can offer a multitude of functions, from MOB alerts to tidal calculations and large faced race count down timers. And yet still there’s utter simplicity of a waterproof self winding timepiece.
Just as tablets and even smartphones have revolutionised how sailors use multifunction displays and instruments, so the latest smart watch technology has now firmly filtered into sailing. While we’re now familiar with using our watches to give us directions, make calls and send messages, and act as a repeater screen on our wrists ashore, so the latest sailing watches also make navigation, data and comms technology wearable afloat.
You’ll see that Garmin have several entries in our best sailing watches guide and if you’re specifically after a Garmin, we have rounded up the best of those in this guide to the best Garmin watch for yachting sailing and more .
However, the cleverest watch is not always the best watch for sailing. For racing an extremely simple and speedy to operate model may suit better. Price is not always an indicator of functionality either; even some of the least expensive sailing watches, like the Casio we showcase below, can be packed with features.
At the other end of the scale, luxury horology brands – including Rolex, Panerai, and Omega among others – have long been closely associated with sailing, seeing it as the perfect sport to demonstrate their style, waterproof and ruggedised qualities, and accuracy.
In making our selection of the best sailing watches, we’ve chosen those with features specifically suitable for wearing aboard. That doesn’t mean, however, that they float, so be sure to do the clasp up securely and be wary of pulling off jacket sleeves in a hurry and losing your prized timepiece overboard!
Editor’s top choices at a glance
Garmin quatix 7.
Best smart sailing watch
Specifications: Apple or android smart phone compatible, Sizes: 47mm / 51mm, Weight 70g, Battery life: up to 16 days with screen on by demand, GPS tracking, waterproof to 10 ATM
Reasons to Buy: Large easy to read face | incredible versatility for an array of lifestyle activity | healthy wellbeing and boat interactivity | customisable to suit individual needs Reasons to Avoid: Battery life not as good as the Quatix 6 if screen is always visible | bright facia can be distracting | touchscreen is pointless without the additional kit it interfaces with
Garmin’s latest sailing smartwatch includes improvements to strengthen integration with onboard electronics.
It’s a touchscreen model that can, for instance, be used to control MFD displays or Fusion audio systems, as well as Garmin autopilots.
You can also pay for things with contactless payments, but you’ll need to use an intermediary app, such as Curve if you are in the UK as British banks haven’t signed up for that function directly yet.
So let’s address the major change for the Quatix 7 over the Quatix 6, and that’s the display. Plenty of folks complained about the darkness or difficulty seeing the Quatix 6 screen, so they’ve addressed that with a much brighter lit up style of screen. It is very bright even when turned to its dimmest setting. To save the battery from being drained unnecessarily at night, there’s a night time version of the watch screen where you can view it as a digital numeric mono display, on demand, otherwise the screen is completely blank. This brighter clearer display does come at a compromise of battery life or screen saver settings.
The extra screen size in the same outer bezel size though is really very nice. Maps and other tracking options can be easily seen.
High end Sapphire models add a new ultra-clear AMOLED touchscreen.
The watch can output directly to Strava and myfitnesspal along with other apps according to your preference. We like this watch very much indeed and it is currently the best smart sailing watch for all round functionality. Pricey though, but worth it.
Casio Lithium Quartz
Best value sailing watch
Specifications: Type: Digital | Size: 48mm
Reasons to buy: Great value | Highly functional | 2 year warranty Reasons to avoid: Lacking in design | Lacking extensive features of premium alternatives
There’s no question that when it comes to affordable innovation, Casio is right up there.
Despite being one of the lowest-priced watches in our selection, the Casio Tide Watch Orange is a highly functional piece of kit which, in addition to all the usual time, day and auto date functions also features a tide graph and lunar phase display.
More conventional sailing watch functions include a timer, stopwatch and LED might. It is water resistant to 100m/10 bars and has a 2 year warranty, all packed into a 48mm diameter, 13 mm thick case.
Ronstan Clear Start Race Timer
Best Race Sailing watch
Specifications: Type: Digital | Size 65mm
Reasons to buy: Robust design with secure strap | Extra-large | easy to press silicon buttons | Great display Reasons to avoid: Some consumers report issues with clasp/strap
With wrist, hull, mast or boom mount options, the Swiss-made Ronstan ClearStart Race Timer is aimed squarely at racing sailors.
Made by renowned rigging and hardware company Ronstan, it’s a robust design with a secure elastic strap and substantial ‘bumper’ around the digital display.
The ClearStart Race Timer’s features include extra-large, easy-press silicon buttons, a highlighted start/stop button, oversized 16 mm digits set in a 65mm rotating face and a double line display simultaneously showing the race countdown and time.
In addition, the ClearStart Race Timer offers ‘5-4-1-0’ and Match Racing start sequence programmes, making it a great choice for competitive sailors. Ruggedly constructed and built to last, this sailing watch weighs in at 92 grammes and is water-resistant to 50 metres.
Garmin MARQ Captain
Best premium sailing watch
Specifications: Type: Smart | Size: 46mm
Reasons to buy: Weather and tidal data | MOB and GPS functions | Stream boat data to your wrist Reasons to avoid: Full extent of capabilities is governed by the onboard technology it’s connected to | Premium price
Tested by: MBY Editor, Hugo Andreae
Our top priced pick comes from wearable tech-specialists, Garmin. The MARQ Captain sailing watch comes packed with marine-relevant features.
Functions include weather and tidal data for your home port, a regatta timer to pinpoint starting times, a ‘tack assist’ function to determine whether you’re on lift or a header, a man overboard button and GPS.
The full extent of its capabilities is governed by the onboard technology to which it is connected, but possibilities include streaming boat data direct to your wrist wherever you are on the boat and controlling products from the Garmin-owned Fusion range of audio systems.

Best big screen countdown race sailing watches.
Optimum Time Series 3 sailing watch
One of the most popular sailing watches on the market
Specifications: Type: Digital | Size: 65mm
Reasons to buy: Great price | Highly functional | Easy to read Reasons to avoid: It’s really big
The popular ‘big yellow’ Optimum Time Series 3 is a lower-priced, yet highly functional racing watch. And it truly is big – far too large for my wrist at a gigantic 65mm (2.56” in) diameter and 16mm (0.62” in) thick. It’s also available in colours other than yellow – including white, blue and pink.
An advantage for racing is that this watch is easy to read at a distance thanks to its huge 16mm digits. A bracket is supplied to fix it to a mast. It also has a sync button if you miss the start gun, and can then run a repeat sequence or race timer for handicap competitions.
Robust, and water resistant to 5 ATM, with a wide elasticated strap.
Optimum Time Series 14 Rechargeable sailing watch
Best racing sailing watch
Specifications: Type: Digital | Size: 68mm
Reasons to buy: Rechargeable battery | Packed with features | Suitable for mounting Reasons to avoid: Basic design
Optimum Time’s bold coloured watches are popular among racing sailors from dinghies upwards, and the new rechargeable design makes it more sustainable for anyone who uses theirs frequently.
Featuring a 36mm diameter LCD display mounted within a bright red and black 68mm ABS case, Optimum Time’s Series 14 watch is a substantial device that is equally suited to being mounted on a mast or boom as your wrist, while the digits are large enough to allow crew to see the same timer as the skipper.
Waterproof to 5 ATM (i.e. capable of withstanding a pressure of 5 bar), the sailing watch is packed with useful features and comes complete with a bespoke USB charger clamp for convenient charging.
Timex Intelligent Quartz Yacht Racer watch
Best for Analogue race sailing watch fans
Specifications: Type: Analogue | Size 46mm
Reasons to buy: Striking analogue display | Countdown timers Reasons to avoid: Larger than average design | Complex to set up | lacks reset button | Expensive
This is a very striking analogue watch, designed to appeal specifically to racing sailors who don’t want a digital display. It features a racing countdown timers (from 5 mins, 3 mins or 1 minute), then after the start the chronometer automatically starts a race timer for up to one hour.
This is a larger than average design, at 46 mm (1.81” in) diameter and 14mm (0.55” in) thick.
However, this watch is complex to set up, as some functions require three buttons to be pressed in sequence. There is also no ‘reset’ button for anyone who misses their start sequence timer.
Ronstan Clearstart RF4055 sailing watch
Best specialist racing sailing watch
Specifications: Type: Digital | Size: 50mm
Reasons to buy: Multiple start sequence options | Match racing timer | Can sync for early/late start Reasons to avoid: Larger than average design
This sailing watch is another specialist racing design. Race mode features include multiple start sequence options, match racing timer and the ability to sync for an early or late start.
The Clearstart RF4055 is unusual in that it has a fibreglass case, which is available in striking yellow and red as well as the more subtle black. It has a 50mm (2″) diameter face, which is larger than most watches, with a 13mm (0.5″ in) digital display, and the weight is 74gm (2.61oz), though the buttons have a lower profile than some other race watches making it neater to wear on shore.
Optimum Time Series 12 sailing watch
Best audible racing sailing watch
Specifications: Type: Digital | Size: 26mm
Reasons to buy: Audible warning features | Many colour choices Reasons to avoid: No GPS or interconnectivity | Small display is hard to read in hectic moments
Another race timer with countdown time and pre-programmed start and audible warnings. Despite its more smart watch-style appearance, there is no GPS or interconnectivity, but you do get a countdown repeat option, World Sailing 5-4-1-0 start sequence pre-programmed with audible warning signals, and a sync button.
The Optimum Time Series 12 is available in many colours, but has a small 26mm (1.02” in) display, with 10mm (0.34” in) figures, which will make it hard to read in the middle of a hectic race start.
Gill Race Watch Timer
Best racing sailing watch for watersports
Specifications: Type: Digital | Size 44mm
Reasons to buy: Water-resistant to 30 metres | Carbon housing | The sleep feature preserves battery life Reasons to avoid: Basic design and functions
This striking red and black Race Watch Timer is a sailing-specific watch developed exclusively for watersports apparel company Gill. It’s water-resistant to an impressive 30 metres, with the timepiece unit encased in a reinforced carbon ABS plastic housing with a stainless steel back.
As well as telling the time, the sailing watch’s functions include a countdown with synchro, day, date and alarm. There’s a keyboard lock feature to you don’t accidentally change the settings and an electro-luminescent backlight allows the wearer to check the data day or night.
A neat sleep feature preserves and prolongs battery life in a ruggedly constructed unit designed for durability and years of trouble-free service.
Limit ProXR Countdown sailing watch
Best value racing sailing watch
Reasons to buy: Large, clear, easy to read display | Multiple design options | Dual time, stopwatch, countdown and pacer functions Reasons to avoid: Lacks features/functions of more premium competitors | Chunky
Limit has been producing watches for more than 110 years and specialises in offering a wide variety of styles at great value prices.
For a budget-friendly sailing watch option, the Limit ProXR Countdown comes with a large, clear and easily readable display and is backed by a two-year guarantee.
It also has a dual time display and stopwatch, countdown and pacer functionality. No fewer than five alarms can be set and there’s a night time illumination facility.
Available in a choice of orange/black or blue/black, the looks of this chunky 50 mm case diameter sailing watch certainly belie its low price tag.
Best Smart sailing watches
Garmin Instinct 2S Solar
Specifications: Type: Smart | Size: 40mm / 45mm / 50mm, weight 53g(2oz)
Reasons to buy: GPS positioning on charts | barometric pressure and compass | Smartphone connectivity | An incredible amount of styles and colours | A single charge lasts 14 days Reasons to avoid: Premium price without a premium design
The Instinct 2, launched in February 2022 is Garmin’s all-round watch, which they call their outdoors watch. Features that are particularly relevant to sailors include GPS positioning on charts; barometric pressure and a compass.
It has smartphone connectivity, receives emails and texts, and can control music via a phone. This watch also has an inbuilt thermometer and heart rate monitor.
The Garmin Instinct is available in no fewer than 20 different styles and colours. It’s actual diameter is 47mm (1 13/16” in) but the viewable face is 32mm (1 1/4”). The Instinct is 16mm (5/8” in) thick and weighs 53g (2 oz).
For racing sailors, it also has multiple start sequence options. We have an indepth review from long term testing of this watch coming soon.
The Garmin Instinct watch is a good alternative for anyone seeking a more moderately priced alternative to the Quatix 6.
Garmin Quatix 6 Multisport Marine Smartwatch
Specifications: Apple or android smart phone compatible, Sizes: 47mm / 51mm, weight 82g, Battery life: up to 16 days with screen always visible, GPS tracking, waterproof to 10 ATM
Reasons to buy: Suits a multitude of water activity | Highly customisable | An incredible amount of data available on your wrist | A single charge lasts 14 days Reasons to avoid: High level of functionality is not for the technologically phobic
This watch I tested comprehensively for several weeks/months – it is a very smart design, with functions for every type of pastime on the water and off it.
Garmin is well known for superior boating instruments and they have now managed to squeeze all the data of a ten-inch chartplotter into a 1.3” inch round sailing watch. Bluetooth functionality means you can connect it to a Garmin chartplotter using the free Garmin Connect app, and to other makes of plotter using the Garmin transceiver (a $150 extra).
This allows all the features of a chartplotter to be displayed on the watch, including charts and even autopilot control to allow you to change heading or follow a GPS route – provided it is also connected through the chartplotter.
The Quatix 6 also offers more typical smartwatch functions including the ability to receive email and texts, can be used to control music on board, and monitors the user’s heart-rate.
It’s simple to switch between ‘boat display’ and ‘stylish watch’ modes, as hundreds of different watch faces that can be downloaded to customise it to the wearer’s preference, including an antique style face and even a copy of Big Ben. The Quatix 6 can also be switched between analogue and digital.
It’s overall diameter is 51mm (2” in) with a 36mm (1 5/8” in) viewable face, and it is 17mm (11/16”) thick. The Quatix 6’s weight is 83g (3oz) with the plastic strap or 156g (5.5oz) with the stainless band, which is quite a bit heavier than a conventional watch.
Best Analogue Sailing watches
Ulysse-Nardin The Ocean Race Diver
Specifications: Type: Analogue | Size: 44mm
Reasons to buy: manufacturer with a strong history in watch making | ‘green’ credentials | classy and collectible Reasons to avoid: Lacks features/functions of more sailing-specific watches | you’ll need deep pockets
Swiss watchmaker Ulysse Nardin sourced discarded fishing nets to upcycle into the base material for this watch, highlighting the 640,000 tonnes of nets that are discarded at sea each year.
In addition, 95% of components for the mechanical movement are sourced from within 30km of Ulysse Nardin’s site.

Spinnaker Haas Automatic
Specifications: Type: Analogue | Size: 43mm
Reasons to buy: S mart styling | easy to read day and night | electronics free | self winding Reasons to avoid: Due to self winding mechanism the watch is not as slim as a quartz movement watch which might mean that cuffs on shirts and foulies are tight.
Tested by: Professional TopSail Schooner Skipper, Phil Pryor
The joy of a traditional analogue watch is right here in this stylish all metal timepiece from Spinnaker.
Spinnaker Watches collaborated with the Marine Conservation Society to produce this limited edition model that’s a tribute to marine biologist and pioneering diver Hans Hass.
If you want to ditch the computers and keep it simple then this is definitely worth a look.
It feels reassuringly sturdy with it’s all metal band and easy to read rating bezel.
It’s waterproof to 300m and requires no batteries as this watch self winds from the motion of your hand through every day movement.
The winder unscrews to allow time, day and date adjustment and that my friends is all there is to this gorgeous watch. At least as far as the wearer is concerned. Behind that metal back is the smooth Japanese workings of a self winding watch. When it arrived in the box the watch was still and inactive. But the moment I removed it from the box it started to self wind. With just a small amount of movement, the second hand was moving.
For sailors who want to a sleek non electric time piece and for those divers who like to go under the water as well as on it.
I love this safety yellow colourway as it really stands out and is easy to read. This might not be to everyone’s taste though which is fine because the Spinnaker Hass comes in 9 different colourways.
FAQ: What makes the best sailing watch?
The ability to read the time, countdown or data in a hurry or at an angle is key, so look out for digital readouts with large numbers – some sailing watches have the ability to switch from digital to analogue readouts – and screens that can be viewed in different qualities of daylight. Backlit functions are essential for anyone heading offshore, whether racing or cruising.
A well-fitting wristband or strap with a secure clasp is vital to keep the watch on your arm. Most sailing watches have soft rubber or synthetic wristbands, which are more durable in a marine environment, and safer than steel. Rubber straps are also lighter and easier to adjust.
If you plan to use your watch for race start timing, look for programmable start sequence options, a sync button, countdowns that switch to seconds in the final stages. A loud, clear alarm or ‘beep’ function that tells you time to the gun is particularly useful, so you can keep watching your course, trim and other boats around you during the final approach to the line rather than having to glance at your wrist.

Review : Timex Yacht Racer, The Functional Fashion Watch
This is not a small watch, nor does it wear smaller than its 46mm diameter. The case thickness of 14mm could fit under the sleeve, but this isn’t the watch for that. If a sleeve is over this, it should be a light jacket or raincoat. The dial is bold and with 6 hands needs to be. None of the hands are shaped the same. The hour hand is flat, the minute hand has an arrow, the seconds hand is a straight steel piece, the chronometer hand is yellow and hollow, the regatta timer is a red arrow with a yellow insert, and the function marker is a straight red bar. There is no wonder the diameter is so big.
Equipped with Intelligent Quartz, the watch has a Perfect Date feature that is essentially a perpetual calendar. Simply push in the crown and the yellow chronometer hand moves to show on the bezel what the date is. This automatically accounts for 28, 30- and 31-day months, and accounts for leap years. The battery is lithium and is rated to last 4-6 years.
Speaking of alarms, there are plenty. There is a 5-minute, 3-minute, and 1-minute alarm. There is also an alarm signalling the last 5 seconds of the regatta timer. The watch beeps at the end of each minute using the timer as well. One of the more unique features of the watch is the bi-directional chronometer hand. When the regatta timer is being used, the hand rotates counterclockwise. When the chronometer is engaged, the hand moves clockwise.
Lume isn’t very bright on this model, and it does not have Indiglo. I didn’t have much of an issue seeing the markers in the dark, but there are no indices for 2, 3, or 4. Stunningly, the regatta timer almost lines up with the inner markings of the dial, so the minute markers can almost substitute for indices. Unfortunately, they are not illuminated.
I have truly enjoyed this piece and look forward to wearing it more in the warmer months. It’s easy to read, easy to use, comfortable, unique… And if it breaks, I won’t flip out because of how affordable it is. This can currently be purchased on eBay for about $215 USD. If you’re looking for a watch that provides the same functionality of the Rolex Yacht-Master II, or you want a colorful piece to add to your collection, this watch checks both boxes without breaking the bank.

The Best Watches for Sailors: A Guide to Choosing the Right Timepiece for Your Next Sailing Adventure
- The Best Watches for Sailors: A Guide to Choosing the Right Timepiece for Your Next Sailing Adventur
Sailing is a thrilling and rewarding activity that requires skill, experience, and the right equipment. Whether you are a beginner skipper or a seasoned sailor, you need a reliable watch that can help you navigate, monitor the weather, and keep track of time. But what makes a good sailing watch? And how do you choose the best one for your needs?
In this blog post, we will explore some of the features and benefits of different types of sailing watches, from simple analog models to advanced digital ones. We will also give you some tips on how to find the best sailing watch for your budget and style.
What to Look for in a Sailing Watch
A sailing watch is not just a fashion accessory. It is a functional tool that can enhance your sailing performance and safety. Here are some of the key features to look for in a sailing watch:
Water resistance : This is a must-have feature for any sailing watch. You want a watch that can withstand splashes, rain, and even immersion in water. The water resistance rating of a watch is measured in atmospheres (ATM) or meters (m). A watch with 10 ATM or 100 m water resistance can handle swimming and snorkeling, while a watch with 20 ATM or 200 m water resistance can handle diving and scuba diving. For sailing, we recommend a watch with at least 10 ATM or 100 m water resistance.
Durability : A sailing watch should be able to withstand shocks, scratches, and corrosion. You want a watch that has a sturdy case, a scratch-resistant crystal, and a durable strap or bracelet. Some materials that are suitable for sailing watches are stainless steel, titanium, ceramic, rubber, silicone, and nylon.
Visibility : A sailing watch should be easy to read in any lighting condition. You want a watch that has a large face, clear numerals or markers, and luminous hands or backlighting. Some watches also have anti-reflective coating on the crystal to reduce glare.
Accuracy : A sailing watch should keep accurate time and date. You want a watch that has a quartz movement or a GPS synchronization feature. Quartz watches are powered by batteries and have very low deviation from the actual time. GPS watches are connected to satellites and automatically adjust to the correct time zone.
Functionality : A sailing watch should have some useful functions that can help you with sailing tasks. Some of the common functions that sailing watches have are:
- Chronograph : This is a stopwatch function that can measure elapsed time, lap time, and split time. You can use it to time your maneuvers, races, or drills.
- Countdown timer : This is a function that can count down from a preset time to zero. You can use it to start your races, synchronize with other boats, or plan your route.
- Regatta timer : This is a special type of countdown timer that has multiple stages. It can help you prepare for the start of a race by giving you audible or visual signals at different intervals.
- Compass : This is a function that can show you the direction of north or your heading. You can use it to navigate, orient yourself, or follow a course.
- Barometer : This is a function that can measure the atmospheric pressure. You can use it to predict the weather changes and plan accordingly.
- Altimeter : This is a function that can measure the altitude above sea level. You can use it to estimate your position or avoid obstacles.
- Thermometer : This is a function that can measure the temperature of the air or water. You can use it to monitor the weather conditions or your comfort level.
- Tide graph : This is a function that can show you the tide levels and phases at different locations and times. You can use it to plan your sailing activities according to the tide cycles.
- Moon phase : This is a function that can show you the moon phases and illumination at different times. You can use it to plan your sailing activities according to the moonlight.

- For adventurous sailors : If you are an adventurous sailor and want a sophisticated and advanced watch that can help you with challenging sailing scenarios, you may want a smart sailing watch with water resistance, durability, visibility, accuracy, and connectivity.

Timex Yacht Racer Review: Stylish Watch for Marine Sports Enthusiasts
Timex Yacht Racer is a stylish sports watch that derives its name from a mode designed for marine sports. Timex is one of the most popular watch brands and while Yacht Racer is not a smartwatch, it has some interesting and useful features.
While many people simply use their smartphones to tell the time, a good wristwatch can still be more convenient. An analogue watch can also be a fashion accessory, much more so than a smartwatch . Then there is the obvious benefit of not having to charge the watch every day. Not everyone needs a smartwatch either, and there will always be demand for premium watches.
The Timex Yacht Racer is an analogue sports watch that you can wear even if you're not a yacht racer.
Design We reviewed the yellow and black variant of the Timex Yacht Racer, which is one of the most stylish sports watches we've seen recently. People spotted it and asked us about it wherever we went. This particular variant is colourful and tends to attract attention, which might not be ideal if you prefer a subtle, professional look. This is more of an outdoors watch, but other colour choices would work for office-goers as well.
The yellow silicone band is comfortable but its ridges could begin to irritate your skin if you perspire. The watch has a metal base which makes it a tad heavy. It took us a few days to get used to its weight on our wrist, but once we did, we almost forgot that we were wearing the it. Having said that, most people are used to wearing watches of this size. Apart from the crown, this watch has three buttons which let you change modes and control the timer and chronograph.
Most of the Yacht Racer's good looks can be attributed to the dial, which looks great. The hour, minute and second hands aside, the watch has a fourth hand for the timer and chronograph. It also shows you the date if you press the crown. Timex has used colours very well on the dial to ensure that the extra hand and dials stand out. The outer edge of the bezel has the numbers 1 to 31 printed on it so that you can use the watch to check the date.The Timex Yacht Racer is water resistant up to a depth of 100 metres.
Using the watch When we first saw the Timex Yacht Racer, we wanted to wear it because of how good it looks. In our excitement we didn't check the manual, and soon realised that we would need to learn how to understand and use the watch's features. The Timex Yacht Racer has several functions that require the same three buttons to be pressed in specific sequences, so you will have to read the user guide or watch the video on Timex's website to make full use of its features. Again, this isn't atypical when talking about watches.
Let's talk about the yacht racing features of the watch. Before that some background for the uninitiated. Most races have some kind of a countdown. Car races usually have a signal system - you're only supposed to start once the light turns green. Similarly, sailing races usually have a five-minute warning signal when a flag is dropped. A whistle is blown at the one-minute mark and the race begins when a horn is sounded. As a yacht racer, you want an easy way to be able to track of all this.
We aren't yacht racers, so we couldn't test the features in an actual race, but we did the best we could. We used the timer in other situations such as when we were working out. The chronograph might not be useful to people unless they plan to use the watch for sports.
The button on the left side of the watch can be used to switch between modes. The Yacht Racer mode comprises three countdown timers - 1, 3 and 5 minutes. Once you activate this, the yellow hand moves anti-clockwise until time runs out, after which it automatically starts the chronograph. The chronograph shows you a total time interval of one hour in two cycles of 30 minutes each. These buttons are easy to access and can be easily pressed with gloves on. If you are trying to activate these features while sailing, we don't think the interface or button layout would present any problems.
The Yacht Racer has another useful feature called Perfect Date. This lets you check the current date by pressing the crown. The fourth hand of the watch then points to the current date. This is programmed at the factory and can account for leap years, shorter and longer months until 2060. The review unit we received was tuned to a different time zone and you can change the date easily using the crown.
One thing to consider is that when the battery is depleted, you'll have to take the watch to the service centre for a battery replacement. The service centre will recalibrate the Perfect Date feature so that it continues to work properly. It's always nicer if you can avoid an extra trip to the service centre but it's unlikely that the watch will run out of battery frequently, which makes the trip a rare inconvenience.
Since the Timex Yacht Racer is an analogue watch, it doesn't have common features you'd expect from the most affordable smartwatch. We're talking features such as notifications, activity tracking, among others. A smartwatch would also let you download apps for yacht racing, chronograph, etc, which gives them an advantage over a traditional watch. We aren't suggesting that these are problems with the Yacht Racer watch. But if you aren't sure whether you should buy a smartwatch or a regular watch, you might want to keep these things in mind.
Verdict The Timex Yacht Racer is a great watch even for those who aren't into that specific sport. Its relatively low price and blend of style and utility make it an appealing purchase. The fact that it's water resistant up to a depth of 100 metres adds to its appeal. It might take you a little while to figure out how to use its various features, but they're easy enough to remember once you do. The watch feels premium enough to command a price of Rs. 14,995, though you can probably pick it up online for half the price.

Know someone who needs a new watch? Check out the new Timex Yacht Racer.
The unique bi-direction center hand provides a countdown to start and a perfect date you’ll never have to set. The Yacht Racer combines the impeccable style of a classic analog watch with the functionality of a digital watch to bring you a timepiece you can wear to the starting line, and show off afterwards.
We put the Yacht Racer to the test and loved it! Best suited for the racer/cruiser, the Yacht Racer is perfect for 5 minute starts and with simple controls, you’ll hit the line at go every time.
Timex will also donate $11 from every Yacht Racer sold to The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society’s to aid their mission to cure leukemia, lymphoma and myeloma and improve the quality of life for patients and their families.

Garmin Quatix 5
See the quatix® 5 on Garmin.com | Read Amazon Reviews that mention “Sailing “
If you’re looking for a watch with multisport functions, this should be at the top of your list. Garmin is a trusted brand when it comes to smartwatches for sports, so you’re sure that you’ll have some of today’s best technology. The Garmin Quatix 5 is built on the powerful Fenix 5 platform, a smartwatch designed for use in the water. This is a good option if you want a more affordable version of the Quantix since the price has dropped since the release of the newers version 6. There really are too many features to name here. If you want a closer look at what’s changed to see which is a better fit – check out this comparison of the Quatix 5 and 6 on Garmin. This powerful GPS marine smartwatch has a heart rate monitor (it’s wrist-based, so you don’t need to use a chest strap). Aside from the boat features, this model also has functions for a wide array of sports (i.e. running, hiking , biking , swimming, etc.) Garmin has dozens of models for different sports and fitness activities, but the reason why the Quantix model made our list is that it has Garmin SailAssist™ Capabilities that allow the user to have a virtual starting line. There is also a tack assist and a race countdown timer. This one is excellent on water, but it’s equally efficient on dry land too. Its simple design is also perfect for daily wear.
SUUNTO Core – All around value
The brand’s sailor-specific watch, the Suunto Elementum Ventus , was one of our top picks in the past but this one is not made anymore, but you may still find second-hand models on the market today. Occasionally one will pop up on eBay . The Suunto Elementum Ventus is a smartwatch with a sleek and sophisticated design, sapphire crystal glass, stainless steel case, and leather strap. The sailing features include a sailing timer, chronograph, compass, and weather predictions.
Garmin MARQ Captain (010-02006-06)
Read Reviews | See on Garmin.com
The Garmin MARQ Captain is an impressive luxury smartwatch filled to the brim with fantastic features for various activities. Along with Garmin’s staple features such as GPS, activity tracker, smart notifications, and Garmin Pay support – the MARQ Captain also provides Driver, Aviator, Expedition, Athlete, and Captain modes. This smartwatch is undoubtedly a masterclass in what these devices can achieve. Design-wise the Garmin MARQ is more oversized than your typical smartwatch. However, this bulkier appearance makes sense considering the MARQ’s build quality and feature-packed design. Also, despite the larger build of the Garmin MARQ, it is surprisingly lighter than you would think, at only 94 grams. In terms of features, the Garmin MARQ offers similar functionalities to the Garmin Fenix 6, and I would even dare say that the MARQ is simply a flashier version of the Fenix 6. However, one of the most notable features in the Garmin MARQ is undoubtedly the Athlete mode. This feature comes with layers of functionality that cover a vast selection of sports such as running, swimming, cycling, skiing, and golf. Besides the variety of sports features, MARQ also offers nifty functions such as a heart-rate sensor, stress tracking, and incident detection that sends notifications to your emergency contacts about your location. I also want to highlight the Recovery feature, which helps you keep track of your rest which can significantly help if you are nursing an injury. For sailing, I have to say that Garmin MARQ provides an unbeatable collection of features for sailors. The MARQ comes with a Regatta feature that helps you formulate the optimum route. The Tack feature also gives you real-time updates on wind shifts. In addition, the Garmin MARQ comes with a Man Overboard function that enables you to track a person who accidentally fell off the boat, which is one of its unique features. Garmin MARQ is undoubtedly one of the top options available in the market as a sailing watch. The Garmin Fenix 6 is a solid sailing watch, but the MARQ Captain is undoubtedly the more stylish of the two.

Bremont Regatta AC
[instagram url=https://www.instagram.com/p/BDRRISat_Ld/ hidecaption=true width=320] The Bremont Regatta AC (America’s Cup) is a limited edition model (the company only produced 235 pieces) and is no longer in production. However, you can still try your luck searching for sellers on eBay. It was priced at around $6,800 when it was still available, this is relatively more affordable than the two luxury brands above. This series and a partnership with Oracle Team USA (OTUSA) were released in Baselworld 2016 with much acclaim. A Blog to Watch quoted Oracle Team USA Skipper Jimmy Spithill as saying (about both AC and OTUSA):
“Naturally, we have a central digital clock on the boat but every sailor still likes to have the time on his wrist, and before a race the countdown to the start is critical. It’s a really tough sport both mentally and physically, and not only does the team need to make decisions under immense pressure but we need to have equipment that allows us to do so,” Spithill said. “With the countdown function being so crucial when racing out on the water, we are really delighted that Bremont has invested in this for us and it’s incredibly special for me that the watches also incorporate some of our winning AC72 which I skippered in 2013.”
Some of the main features of the AC include a titanium case material, automatic movement, sapphire glass, and a rubber bracelet. This chronograph timepiece’s sleek, classic design exudes elegance without being flashy.

Timex Intelligent Quartz Yacht Racer Pro. The eye-catching orange dial on this wristwatch makes more of a statement back on shore than the others on this list. But as a quartz, it's also much more affordable. The Yacht Racer Pro has the same countdown and Chrono functions as the others and is water resistant to 100m.
The Garmin Instinct is available in no fewer than 20 different styles and colours. It's actual diameter is 47mm (1 13/16" in) but the viewable face is 32mm (1 1/4"). The Instinct is 16mm (5/ ...

Some of the best sailing watches are: For beginner skippers: Timex Yacht Racer Pro, which has a chronograph function with a yacht racing mode. For experienced sailors: Garmin Quatix 6, which has multiple functions such as compass, barometer, altimeter, thermometer, tide graph, moon phase, and more.
Timex has used colours very well on the dial to ensure that the extra hand and dials stand out. The outer edge of the bezel has the numbers 1 to 31 printed on it so that you can use the watch to check the date.The Timex Yacht Racer is water resistant up to a depth of 100 metres. Using the watch.
