Wristwatch was probably better, since the length of the Windows seconds would vary slightly, since the CPU is too busy doing a bunch of other crap for it to be exact.

Then I figured out using the mouse would sometimes cause me to miss the button. So I used Tab to highlight the button and all I had to do was press Enter on the keyboard.
Haha I was doing the same thing. But you're right, it's slightly off. Honestly though, there's no excuse for that. There should always be enough CPU to do an accurate measurement of time.
