Pros: It was about a third the price of one locally, so that's a bonus. And I've compared the two and they're very similar.
Comes with a desktop stand, but I didn't have any use for that.
Shiny.
Counts on every click - no misssed counts with it from a bad click with it or anything like that.
Cons: The holes for the desktop stand stripped with a little tightening.
Other Thoughts: Not a whole lot to say about the device other than it works great for what I need it for.
Bottomline: Works great for counting arrows I've shot and helps me meet stamina goals and spread breaks evenly to train for tournaments (assuming I remember to click it after each end).
If you need one, this one works great - there's also another one that's a little nicer but this counts just as well.
WHICHEVER COUNTER!

Pros: Beautifull by itself! Superb icon!
I bought one to NOTHING! Just to get it!
It is a brilliant design with the architectonic´s motto of FORMS FOLLOWS FUNCTION, indeed!
Cons: The cilindrically-shaped Counter of mine was quite different from the Globe-shaped ones printed on the package, but I am in doubts if this can be considered a "CON".
The cilindrical top body, wich remains the maechanisms, it is made in chroimed steel, but his "foot" is just a piece of a poor and weaky chromed plastic.
Other Thoughts: Nice (and rare!) icon of Vintage Design!
Buy one, just as a Conversation Piece!
Put it on your desk, at the shelf, on shops!
Bottomline: Ubelievable cheap!
Buy to gift a person wich you know the person WILL LOVE IT!
It is the most usefull useless thing I had bought in my life and I am ordering more units of them!
I'm sure it's useful

Pros: The design is very comfortable, it sits well in the palm of your hand with the button just under your thumb. Using it is very simple as you'd expect and combined with the surprisingly nice action makes it second-nature to use.
Cons: The main body is metal, but the base is plastic. If you screwed it to a surface, I doubt the plastic would hold up for long.
Other Thoughts: I removed the base from mine and replaced the screws - they were slightly less ugly than the holes. You'd have to be pretty pedantic to care though, the screw heads are only about 2mm across.
Bottomline: It (mostly) does what it says on the box. It's a tally counter and comfortable to use. If you want one for any reason, then this might as well be it.
