What kind of watch do you use?
I know everybody has to have one - I've seen a referee watch that is big and round and is apparently made specifically for football. It has different color-coded areas based on how much time is left and apparently can count down and whatnot.
For someone who's unlikely to be a referee, what kind of watch should you/could you have? I haven't worn a personal watch in about 10 years, so I don't own any. Can you get decent watches cheap, is a digital one that can count down okay, and are you constantly fiddling with it to start and stop it?
I thought I've seen referees back in the day with old-fashioned circular stopwatches in their hands the entire time - is that still done?
