Two fully customizable alarms. By fully customizable,I mean either alarm can be configured to sound every day, on one specificday of the week (every Monday, for instance, to make sure you remember togo back to work), or on any specified date. I love this feature, and findit extremely useful. It's a great way to remind yourself of somethingwithout bothering with your PDA. The backlight flashes in addition tothe audible alarm, in case you turned the sound on your watch off in orderto avoid being rude in a movie or at a wedding (though if you did, you needto get your priorities straight!).Countdown timer. No digital watch is fully completewithout one, in my opinion. The range is from one second to 23 hours, 59minutes and 59 seconds. Backlight flashes in addition to audible alarm.Calendar. Of course you get the date, but the Paparazzi(along with all MSN Direct Corum Classic Automatic Movement Silver Case with Diamond Bezel and Numeral Marker-Dark Brow watch ) also gives you a full calendar. Thisis another feature I absolutely love. Check out the Paparazzi photo galleryto see it in action, but basically, you get a full seven-column calendarwhich you can scroll backward and forward.
