If a watch does not have five alarms it's useless to me.
This is what I am currently beating up. So far it's the best watch I've enjoyed in a while. Got it for $38 from amazon a few months ago:

I used to like timex ironman triatholons but the last one I got fell apart after a few months.
Triax electronics are made by seiko, so good internals and nike "style":
The Triax Stamina is a performance running watch with all the features you need for training and racing. This is the larger version.
* The whole watch actually curves around your wrist. As a result, the numbers are bigger and the watch fits better.
* Features a runner's chronograph (stopwatch) with simultaneous lap and split (total) display. Before your run, you can choose which appears in the main section of the display. For example, in a marathon, if you're focused on your mile or kilometer times, you can put lap time in the main display. In a 10k race, you may prefer split (total) time in the main display.
* If you tell the watch what distance you are running, it can automatically calculate your average pace.
* After a workout, you can review your lap times for up to 100 laps, and save this data for multiple runs on different days. Great for people keeping a detailed log, or tracking their progress throughout a training plan.
* Features a 5 segment interval timer. Great for a walk/run marathon, or for doing speed work with recovery sessions.
* Tells time and calendar information for 2 time zones.
* Also has 5 alarms. Why? Endurance athletes in training eat many small meals.
* One-touch backlight.
* Water resistant to 50 meters. Fine for swimming in a pool.
* Includes a battery hatch so you can change the battery yourself. You can also use Power Save, a feature that puts your watch to "sleep," and extends battery life.
