Two varieties of analogue timer?
on:

As mentioned here (
https://forum.multitool.org/index.php/topic,22041.0.html
), I found a few SuperTimer and Timekeeper items for sale.
I noticed that some of the watch scale inserts tick every second, and some every five seconds. Both varieties have the Roman numeral face.
Is that already recorded somewhere?

Some watches tick less than once/second when the battery gets low. I wonder if that's what you're witnessing?

I'll swap the (new) batteries over and see of it changes things.

As seen here I now have a representative sample:

.
All have new batteries. Although I might have accidentally moved some watch modules around it seems that the Timekeepers have the one second tick and the SuperTimers have 5s. As described there, the TK have old features, suggesting that there are older and newer watch units as well. Maybe

Interesting.
Looking at the other thread, it appears you have one Timekeeper too many.
If that odd man out ever needs a home, I'd gladly take him in.
