Countdown timer for the standing watch. Pick a preset (4-on/8-off bridge watch, 6-on/6-off coastal, or custom) or enter your own length. The timer runs in this browser tab; if you grant notification permission, you'll get a Web Notification when the watch ends, even if the tab is in the background.
Useful for keeping a private clock when you're a few minutes ahead of the official handover, or for tracking rest hours under STCW VIII (10 hours rest in 24, 77 in 7). For the rest-hours framework see /reference/watchkeeping.
240 minute timer
Notifications work in modern browsers (Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge). On iOS, notifications require a Home-screen-installed PWA.
Scenario:You're the 3rd Officer on a Panamax bulker. Watch is 08:00-12:00 + 20:00-24:00. You want to prep the noon report starting 20 minutes before hand-over.
Setup: Select the 4-hour preset. Start the timer at 08:00. Expect it to ring at 11:40 (with a 20-minute early-alert configured). At 11:40 begin the noon report. At 12:00 the timer zeros — hand over to the 2nd Officer. Restart for the 20:00-24:00 watch after your afternoon rest.
