Sailing watches are a very helpful tool to have when on the water. They can be used as a count down timers before a race start or just a large clock on deck or can be attached to the mast or boom.
The OS series 3 watch is one of if not the most popular sailing watches. The large display with clear to read numbers allows the watch to be read from across the boat. The elasticated strap let you mount it on the boom or mast without needing any tools or mounting brackets.
The key reason this watch is used for sailing is for the count down timer. The large display and large easy to use buttons are great for use with gloves or cold hands. The loud countdown sound lets you know each minute and count down to go.
The countdown timer has different options to allow anyone at and sailing event to find one that works for you.
Count down timers,
The watch that stands out for all the right reasons is available in a range of colours.

Available in white or yellow
Unsure about the size of the yellow and white big sailing watches?
We also have Optimum Time Series 11 in White, Blue and Black.
The series 11 watch is less expensive than the big sailing watch and still packs many of the great features of the larger watch in this smaller package. Can be worn for every day and on the water. With the same range of countdown pre-sets as the bigger watch in a small and more compact package.
We also have the new Series 15 watch from Optimum time this watch has been a very popular watch since its launch. An increase in screen size over the series 11 makes it easier to read when sailing. This watch uses the tried and tested chips and components as the very popular series 3 watches. The introduction of the strong mineral glass face and a removable strap make this a step up from the series 11 watches.

Really good selection of rope sizes, delivered speedily. Great idea to put the offcuts to good use. Caused a few laughs when people realised what I'd ordered ;-)
The sales team were quick responding to our questions, dispatched to us promptly, and the product is a perfect replacement for our old tiller which ended up at the bottom of a lake!
Love the fact they don’t leak.
You do need to squeeze to get liquid out. Which is so much better. Don’t lose liquid etc.
nice size and robust
Great for when it’s not too cold. But is windy and wet. Needing to stay dry on top.
Very easy to install. May need some additional sealing for complete water-tightness.
It was time for me to upgrade to a newer Ilca and it was recommended that I get a Devoti. The price was competitive and the service from Andrew and his team was fantastic. I received lots of communication and the boat was delivered to me within 2 weeks. It is really great that Sailing Chandlery take the time to set up the rigging so that you can get straight on the water. I am very pleased with my new boat and am loving sailing it. Thank you Sailing Chandlery!
Excellent fit for a topaz. Great service on collection.
Perfect
Love this bag. Great wet area within it as well.
Excellent to use as for a birthday gift to family members keen on sailing
Currently 2 weeks into an Eastern Mediterranean trip with these shoes. Grip is great and they drain really well. Comfort is brilliant… as long as you take the right size. I followed the measurement guidelines and they work well. Highly recommend shoe!
Quick despatch and a good quality product. Moves smoothly along the boom.
Ordered a dyneema RSAero halyard on the Thursday. It arrived by mid day on the Friday and was used on the Saturday. Excellent product and service. Thank you
Reeves really easily, jams well and excellent grip
I bought the burgee and clip for a Hartley 12 and found downwind sailing much easier single handed. The clip came with the screws so it was a 10 minute job including dropping the mast. Website worked well again and the items were delivered quickly so a good job all round.
