I agree with Marianne.  You've been a braille reader long enough that your
touch would be light when necessary.  The hands aren't that easily moved.

Hi all,

First, sorry about the first email.

I've recently grown concerned with my ability to keep track of time in my
music therapy sessions.  We have 30 minute sessions from 10:45-11:15, and
unless I ask my partner or supervisor I run the risk of pacing myself too
slowly or too fast.  I used to use the talking watches but don't want
something that talks while I'm in the middle of the session.  This is
because I wouldn't want it to distract my clients, and if I want to check
the time while they're playing hearing the time could be difficult for me.
The ideal situation would be to get a Bradley, but I don't have the $300 to
shell out on a watch at this point.

I know the braille watches are less expensive, but that their hands can be
moved out of position fairly easily.  Do they move enough for me to be
concerned about inaccuracy if I were to get one?  I haven't seen many of
them so I really don't have much experience with them to go by.

Thanks,
