If you feel like you can't look because you might miss something, you can grant the time out in your head before you look and before you blow the whistle. Now the ball is theoretically dead. If you look, and there's no visual signal, then you look quickly back, and the only thing you might have missed would be a travel or a little foul. If you see a visual signal, then whistle immediately. If the ball was in the air when you blew, it doesn't matter, because you'd already granted the TO in your heart of hearts. If anyone comments, it was a late whistle.
