bkdc Posted October 1, 2006 Report Share Posted October 1, 2006 I've been looking for a used Vibrograf on eBay. However, I started reading about MicroSet Watch Timers. These are small electronic watch timers at a very reasonable cost. Does anyone have experience with these timers? https://bmumford.securewebsites.com/mset/modelwatch1.html The Zigmeister? Anyone?

mikellem Posted October 1, 2006 Report Share Posted October 1, 2006 I personally purchased this Watch Timer. This unit is wonderful... It's very easy to adjust your watches with this unit. I would highly recommend this unit. Good Luck! -MM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bkdc Posted October 2, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 2, 2006 (edited) Which accessories did you order with it? I was just thinking of getting the version 3 software so I could get a rough check of amplitude and paper tape timer simulation. The rest of the options don't appear very useful.

mikellem Posted October 2, 2006 Report Share Posted October 2, 2006 I only purchased the timer and the watch sensor. I think the Beat Amplifier is new! You will love this piece! As all I need to do with the led timer, is be able to set the beat and the rate! Works to perfection! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chubbchubb Posted October 2, 2006 Report Share Posted October 2, 2006 I came across these two when checking for an alternative to the expensive standard watch timers They are both software based timing-machines working with additional external gear (microphone etc.) which is hooked up to a computer. IMHO this is nice because you can store data on the watches in your collection and compare older to newer reports on the same watch. 1.) http://pczw.uhren-mikl.com/en/index.php?Timing_Machine 2.) http://www.waschke-bochum.de/index_en.html Prices are both in the 300€ range. I posted the English links, the German description is much better though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RWG Technical Posted October 2, 2006 Report Share Posted October 2, 2006 Can't help with the Microset...as I dont' own one...only bad thing I have heard about them is the quality of the microphone. But I have no personal experience with them. I have a Vibrograph B200A myself, it's older, but an equivalent replacement is far too expensive...and the B200A will do everything I need to get done... Mikellem has good results with his microset, so that's good enough for me... RG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Logan Posted October 5, 2006 Report Share Posted October 5, 2006 Check out Joshua's site (perfect clones) He has a pretty nice looking unit with a big flat screen for around the same price as the microset once you buy all the bits. Its actually the same as Jules Borel sells at nearly twice the price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
