Gill's New watches: The Regatta Master Watch and the Race Watch

Gill has designed a new range of watches, with updated features and styling.They have been designed exclusively for Gill as a sailing specific watch, although they can also be used for powerboat racing, navigation and other on the water time keeping.

Both watches have the features you expect like being water resistant to 30m, shock and impact resistant construction and time, date, day and alarm functions. They also have features you need from a sailing watch to be at the starting line on time including an adjustable countdown timer with a synchro button. They are constructed from Carbon reinforced ABS plastic with a stainless steel case back and feature a Flexible, hard wearing TPU strap.

Then there's the features that will impress you and make these watches stand out. They have a key lock function, so you won't accidentally reset your timer when roll tacking a dinghy or grinding a winch. They have a sleep mode to save battery life. Last but certainly not least is one of the most useful features    to the racing sailor: the numbers on the countdown timer increase in size and clarity during the last minute and the countdown timer features audible warnings.

The Regatta Master Watch has even more features. It has a dual time feature that shows the time for two time zones. This is perfect for people who travel a lot, you can leave one time mode for your home and use the second one for your destination. It also features a stop watch and is water resistant down to 50m.

Both watches are excellent options. The Gill race watch features a modern design and is available in three stylish colors; Blue/White, Red/White and Black/Red. The Race Master Watch has a timeless design and has additional features and strength.

 Whether you choose the Gill Race or Regatta master watch, you can trust your timepiece to reliably count down to the start. Now it's up to you to be on the line when the timer reads 0:00.
