Great simplistic timer

I have been using this for over 10 years and it always works perfectly. I can easily read the numbers, either landscape or portrait. I love that it changes color when I hit a preset. I hope that it never gets an update because it is awesome as it is. I’m a preacher and have various uses for it in different settings with different time allotments. I recommend it to all my preacher friends.
