ABOUT THE SWIMNERD PACE CLOCK

We coat our electronic boards in a special glue that is impermeable to water, humidity, and the overall harsh conditions of swimming pools. Built to be outside, they just need roof over their head.
9" inch tall LED's are made specifically for outdoor viewing and are visible up to 100 meters away.
Two year manufacturers warranty.
30" x 2.5" x 12" (L x W x H); weighs less than 10 lbs!
ACCESSORIES (sold separately)
If you aren't hanging the clock, you'll need a Swimnerd Tripod.
Don't have an electrical outlet near your pool? We have a rechargeable battery for sale.
