I know this has been discussed a lot over the years, but what are the latest thoughts on the best watch to use that is allowed? I know I can set my regular analog wristwatch to 12, but even the small anxiety of doing that after each section seems like too much. I know people like this one https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005JVP0LE/ref=ppx_od_dt_b_asin_title_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 but I don't love having to watch the bezel since I'm not used to it. Does anyone know if the 180 watch or these, which are basically the same thing:

have been banned? I see conflicting reports online, and I'm not even sure if we can trust a phone call to LSAC because when I called them to ask if we could bring 2 highlighters, they said no and I walked right into the test with two highlighters. If it's still allowed, I think it might be the best one for me. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

When are you doing it? Watches will be obsolete come september:)
June and July. Hopefully not September. Sprung for the Perfect Score one and may bring my regular analog watch too. So many conflicting reports online about which and how many watches are ok. I haven't been using a watch at all in my prep, but I'm starting today because I am still sometimes finding myself in the sticky situation of hearing "5 min remaining" after I've only just begun the final game or just finished reading the final passage and haven't even started the questions yet. Sucks.

This was when I asked about it about a week ago! hopefully you can get some answers
Thanks. I still don't know if the Perfect Score one will be OK, but I'll risk it. If they make me throw it out, so be it.
Sorry if everyone is sick of the watch question, but I did get an e-mail directly from LSAC saying the Perfect Score watch is definitely allowed for June and July. So I'll be bringing that e-mail with me
I believe their chronograph restriction basically means that you can't have anything where you click a button to re-set it. Since the Perfect Score watch has a rotating bezel, it should be allowed. That said, there's always a chance that an over-eager proctor doesn't allow your watch. It's super frustrating, but things just aren't consistently enforced. So since you already bought that one, I'd just caution you that there's still maybe a 10% chance that you won't be allowed to bring it in. Personally, I think the Casio with the rotating bezel is all you need. I used a sharpie to mark the bezel with important times. And when they phase in the digital LSAT in July/September, it won't be needed since there's a clock on the tablet.
Good luck!
