    Thanks all! This was my understanding as well. Thats its allowed but some proctors dont know any better and make rash decisions. I took in December and that was the case, but I am taking July though and stupidly only thought about this being a potential issue yesterday haha. In my december exam, I was fine with my perfect score but I think a girl got her testmasters watch taken in another room. So silly

    Honestly? I just started my watch at the hour, and wound that sucker forward or backwards between sections to the top of the hour again, and then started it when they said turn the page and begin. Cheap o' $10 watch from Walmart with big clear numbers. Worked great. Nobody would ever take it away either.

    Better safe than sorry. I also practiced using that watch.

    I think perfect score watchis allowed, but there were reports of some proctors taking it away anyway. ::shrug:: Proctors can be weird and inconsistent.

    The Casio with the rotating bezel is generally going to be a safer bet. I believe they consider a watch that re-sets with the click of a button to be a stopwatch (or chronograph? It’s weird). If you have to re-set it by pulling a pin out and turning it, should be fine. But every once in a while a proctor takes away a specialized LSAT watch anyway. (I really, really wish they could get the proctors to be consistent so we’d all know!)

    I believe they are fine as long as it has a bezel. They have a thing against simply pressing a button to reset it like the 180 watch. Don't quote me on this though =)

    I just got the Perfect score watch but I am confused about whether it is allowed still? Is it a chronograph watch? If it is, i don't think it's allowed anymore.

    Perfect score is allowed. Mastermind and 180 watch aren't

    Yeah because that makes so much sense. >_>

    For a company who deals with a logic test they really lack good reasoning for the shit they do...

    I've been using the perfect score watch for nearly the entire time I've been studying. I'm using the proctor part of the 7Sage app on my prep tests to get used to a voice booming out at me for the last five minutes, etc. From what I've noticed, the 7Sage proctors transitions between sections very quickly. The first few times it really flustered me trying to transition sections and reset my perfect score watch. But in all honesty, after one or two practice tests using the proctor and the watch in combo (instead of just the watch) I got used to it. If you're anything like me, all it takes is to practice a few times with the proctor to get over the "yikes! I haven't reset my watch yet! Don't start!!" moment.

    YES! That's why I love this watch with the rotating bezel! https://www.amazon.com/Casio-MRW200H-7EV-Sport-Resin-Watch/dp/B005JVP0FU/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1431715673&sr=8-3&keywords=analog+watch+casio

    @gregoryalexanderdevine723 Yeah, I have the same problem because of my short nails. Also, my watch pin sometimes gets stuck, which is the last thing you want on test day!

    Yeah, that pin is sticky and it just a contingency I don't want to deal with on test day. I've been using a cheap Casio JY recommended for like $10 or something and it's got an adjustable bezel and it's just less hassle. At least in my opinion.

    The 180 watches were decent by this past year I've heard nothing but problems with them and they are certainly not worth 70 bucks.... lol

    I will add that the pin to reset it is a a pain in the ass to pull out. Maybe he's because m short nails... damn anxiety. I actually have a barely used one. Maybe I'll raffle or give it away!
