Hi
I have seen links to those Sportcount Ring Lap Counters but do they show strokes ?
Sportcount Ring Lap Counter

I actually don't care about laps. I need to reduce my stroke count for efficiency.
There used to be the Speedo Stroke Counter Watch but I think it's discontinued. It looks like it was a sweet watch/counter !! It's not on the Speedo website :(
Product Description

Actually I think the problem is that they dont' ship to Canada.
Can someone from the USA surf to that link and see if there is an add to cart button because there isn't for me here in Canada.
Please advise where I can get this watch or other stroke counter.
Also does anyone have a MIO strapless heart rate monitor watch? They are supposed to be great. ECG reading from finger contact on watch face. Many models. All water resistant at 10 to 30 meters.

I was one of the swimmers who tested the Speedo watch way back when (late-1990s). It wasn't a great watch to use, but often helpful.
Two problems were that you had to press the "stop" button after you finished your repeat. Most likely that would be two to three seconds after you touch, so the stroke rate and other info would be off.
Second problem was that it was too bulky.
Oh, and one more problem. There was no way to do stroke counts and stroke rates for breaststroke. Being a breaststroker, I felt left out. As usual.
