... one of those digital kitchen timers; dual stopwatches, count up/down, big clear display...
I just wish I could find one that counts up endlessly, except when you push the single button, which makes it count up from zero again.

Just like a mechanical stopwatch, except with a big digital display.

Also just like the one-touch-reset timer you find on lots of Cessna Nav panels.

Incredibly, every "pilot" digital stopwatch I have seen fails to reproduce this most basic function of a stopwatch. Typically you need three button pushes. Adding half a dozen snazzy approach timers does not make up for this.
