According to the company making the watch for the NFL, Honig's is going to be the very first retailer to have it available.

They are suppose to be in stock sometime this week. I'm hoping to have mine at the end of the week.

I just spoke to Jeff at Honig's. He said the watches just arrived and will probably start shipping tomorrow.

Just got an e-mail from UPS that my Reebok watch has been shipped and will arrive on Friday.

Same here. I'm looking forward to getting it.

Got my Reebok NFL watch. Great watch - but you can't preset it for anything under 1:00. So you can't use it for timing the play clock. Only once have I had to time a high school game on the field, so $100 is a lot of money for a backup device. I will be returning it and I'll spend about $30 for something else.

But still, if you often use a watch for game timing, this is a great one. Very easy to set, very easy to use.

The Casio is the one to get for back judges. If you time the game, then the NFL may be a bit easier to operate on a start/stop basis. Whatever you do, don't get a Timex Ironman if you need to time the game accurately. The start and stop buttons are different, which is stupid, and you may screw things up without realizing it.

I ALMOST bought one of those Ironman watches yesterday. Luckily, I looked at it more closely that usual. Not a good watch for our use.

I called Honig today to let them know about the Reebok. They weren't aware that you couldn't use it for timing the play clock. They said they'd provide the feedback to Reebok - so maybe we'll get a new version next season. If so, I'm buying it!
