A drummer's best friend.
The Tama Rhythm Watch is the first metronome to give drummers the special features they require. And it has enough volume so you can play with real drums.
The large display is easy to read during performance, and there's a large dial for quick tempo adjustments. Choose from 2 different sounds. 20 different memory settings can be recalled instantly. Red and green LEDs offer visual reinforcement. Volumes for quarter notes, eighth notes, and triplets can be set individually for different rhythm patterns. Tap function lets you find the tempo by simply tapping the START/TAP button.
Features
- Tempo range: 30 - 250 BPM
- Dimensions: 6" x 5" x 1"
- Weight: 11.64 oz
Score this invaluable time-keeper today and get more out of your shedding sessions!

I think this is one of the best full size metronomes I've used. It can mount to hardware on your kit. I tuck it in under the hi-hat. The back lighting was a nice improvement from earlier models. It's still a bit tough to use the TAP feature live, then have to switch modes to see the tempo. I use this live to get the count-offs for each song, and the large dial lets you easily make adjustments. However, this is a replacement to my original Tama...the tap button either wore out, or wasn't manufactured bullet-proof, but it became increasing unreliable.

I've had this metronome for several years. I've had some minor problems with it, namely the temperamental start/tap button. I have it mounted on my hi-hat stand and start/tap is prone to triggering when I play with my foot, yet I've had trouble getting it to work when I'm pushing it intentionally with my finger. You have to go through all 20 memory settings, even if you haven?t programed them all, to get back to the beginning. Plus, the memory button doesn't work while a pedal is plugged in. I've also come to dislike the tempo knob, as it's difficult to fine-tune the tempo while playing.Its simplicity is a good thing for most drummers most of the time. But forget about compound time signatures or really doing anything beyond simple time keeping and beat mixing. It can store multiple tempos/beats, but there's no way to program it to loop amongst them. The Boss DB-60 is a cheaper and more capable metronome, but it's also less user friendly.

Comments about Tama Rhythm Watch:
For practice OK but way too expensive. For live use absolutely not usable. The tap-in function is totally unfunctional. If you need it for live gigs get a Dr. Beat, otherwise get a super cheap click (or ap). I love Tama drums, but this metronome is just a joke.

Comments about Tama Rhythm Watch:
I wish that it was louder and would also have an audible count as well as the clicks, but it is helping me a lot.
Comments about Tama Rhythm Watch:
Over all this is a very nice metronome to own I would recomend it to anyone who needs a solid meter in their ear.
This is a very nice device. there are many tempos to choose from and in between beats to help out. the sound is loud enough for me and I play LOUD. It has helped me in recording very much.
Comments about Tama Rhythm Watch:
sooo its a really good metronome but it might be a bit expencive for the lack of functionality. the programable BPMs only scroll throgh in one direction which is probably the only thing i hav against it
Comments about Tama Rhythm Watch:
I had seen this little device for the first time about 4 years ago, when my drum teacher at that time brought it in and was in love with it. I to was impressed with it. I have almost nothing negative to say about it. It has some great features. It really has everything I need in a metronome. The ONLY thing I don't really like is the triplet function on it is a little tricky to get it where you want, and I do wish it transitioned between tempos smoothly and not stop and start. You won't be disapointed.
Comments about Tama Rhythm Watch:
The band loves the Tama Rythm Watch as much as I do. I've used it for 6 months. At practice or live our performance has improved thanks to the timing discipline using a metronome full time brings. We often dial up or down the BPM's a little to better suite what we're playing. I use the Tama Rythm Watch everytime I practice my drum chops. All the big drum instructers say to use a metromone. The Tama Rythm Watch is the best for me.
To be able to determine and adjust the Beats Per Minute(BPM) easily in a song is easy.
I've used the Rythm Watch at least 5 times a week for 30-60 minutes. Once a week I take it off my hi hat stand at home to my practice set else where. I recommend you buy the Tama L-arm attachment and FastClamp. Then you can put on or take off the Rythm Watch anywhere on your kit quickly and easily.
Comments about Tama Rhythm Watch:
This Tama Rhythm Watch is a very good product. But be aware of a few details that are not fully developed. It's astonishing to me that they are selling a battery operated unit that does not have an "auto-off" function that shuts the thing off in, say, 10 min of non-operation. Nope, it will drain your battery if you go answer a call and forget to shut it off. My biggest niggle is that, while turning the tempo wheel while running, it will stutter and 'lose' the beat! It does NOT smoothly follow increases or decreases in wheel movement. The tap function is usually 3-4 bpm too slow. I guess you can just get used to that. I use 2 - one in studio one at home all the time. Also it should go to the "12th" beat, (most common in flamenco). Still, a great tool.
Comments about Tama Rhythm Watch:
This piece of equipment has saved my but in concerts and recordings. This is a VERY dependable piece of equipment, I've had it for just over a year now and its still working perfectly. The only thing I've noticed about it, is that if you unplug it with out turning it off first, or if while its pluged in the power goes out for a second, all the settings go back to the factory settings, and you have to re-set them.
