Prestige MedicalAnalog Stethoscope Watch

I have this lil guy on my stethoscope and I couldn't be happier! It sets mine apart form others. It is super light weight. It slides so you can put it where you need it each time you use it, which helps because all calls are different! I actually lost my stethoscope in the ER on clinical time once and they knew who it belonged to because of that little clock. It has been over 2 years now and it still keeps good time. Has a second hand for when you forget your watch and are taking vitals. Also yesterday I was getting out of the car and it got caught in the door some how and instead of reaching down and gently rearranging it to get it out I just yanked on it and it came out in 2 pieces, I thought it was done for but it just snapped right back together! I am IMPRESSED! well worth it! Recommended.

This is an amazing tool for any nurse. Using it while assessing newborns is an absolute game changer. You can keep your eyes on the time and the patient for a better assessment all while helping save you from straining your neck and back to watch the wall clock. It also helps to have your other hand free to help sooth babies instead of having to constantly move your arm to check the time or ensure the second hand doesn’t disappear on your smart watch.

Do not buy. What a disappointment. It broke in 3 places before I could use it. Took it out of the package - good. Set the time - good. Tried to put it on my stethoscope - f- me. It the second hand popped off, the back popped off, the winder to change the time broke in half. They should include in the description: Here, nurse, buy a piece of dukey watch because yours is covered with PPE when you need it, just so it can break the moment you try to use it. Not refundable or returnable? No problem, for us. But hey, thanks for sticking in there these last couple years through the muck of higher than usual acuity patients on over crowded understaffed units.

Overall does what it’s supposed to - provides an easy-to-read second hand that you can watch while counting HR or RR.Other notes:(I have a standard MDF stethoscope for reference)- Difficult to put on. Had to bend my stethoscope tubing in order to make it pinch in one spot so that I could start sliding the watch on. Took prob 5 minutes of messing with it to get it on. I wanted it placed near the chest piece/ stem in order to easily see it while holding it to listen. (Someone else in another review mentioned sliding it over the eartips to have on that side of the stethoscope, but that’s not where I wanted mine). Took a bit of effort to force it on the main section but eventually got it- Loose once I got it on. I’m not worried about it it randomly falling off at least I guess. But it does slide around a lot once it’s on the tubing. I may look into taping/ hot gluing it to a specific spot since I need to be able to use it one-handed while writing with my other hand. Will update on how this goes if I do.Can somewhat hold it in place but it would be a better device if it was able to stay in one spot- Seems to keep time while and easy to adjust time and start/ stop the watch if so desire to save the battery life. (I do not look forward to having to take this off in order to one day replace the battery, so I plan to make the one that came in it last as long as possible)- I do not hear any interference or ticking from the watch itself (another review mentioned it bothering them but I didn’t notice it at all)- Very easy to read and follow the 15 second increments. Ideal watch. Just has room for improvement. A more flexible attachment piece would be the best place to start.

I had previously purchased one of these after tech school and it lasted quite awhile (till I dropped it) I even held it together with tape for as long as I could because I loved it so much. As long as you don't drop it like I did it works great! It lasted me a couple of years.

I use this primarily for taking respirations without my patients knowing. It's really hard to get over the tubing (I have a Littmann Classic III) and I was afraid I'd damage the tubing, but it finally popped on. I wish the clip on the back were something softer and easier to get onto the tubing, and I wish it was able to be adjusted to the tubing so it wouldn't slide around so much. A simple slot for a strap would have better I think - so you could use a piece of velcro to attach it. It's not the greatest quality as far as watches go, but that's also not my main use for it. I would have liked to have seen a bit better quality for the price, or at least a simple stopwatch function instead of a watch with a second hand. Also a backlight or indiglo feature would've been nice so I wouldn't have to turn the lights on to use it (my clinicals are at night, so my patients are often resting and I hate to disturb them and fully wake them just to take vitals).

I work in the medical field, and it is important that I be able to monitor things as they relate to time. I do not wear a watch. I was using my cell phone's clock function as a timer, but the latest Android update deleted the ability to monitor seconds.This watch fits my stethoscope perfectly (Littman Cardiology II). It has a second hand that is easy to read. I have been using it for several months and I really like it.Other reviewers talk about ticking noise. I do not have that problem.The only thing that I wish it had was the ability to compensate for Daylight Savings Time. Unfortunately, it has to be manually reset when the time changes.
