Default [REQ] Simple Chronometer

I've expressed these sentiments before, but I'm gonna try again. The chronos we have now look great, but for me, I'd much prefer a simple chrono without time hands on it. We don't need to tell time when using the chrono, just an easy to read, accurate stopwatch. All too often, I find while trying to read the elapsed time, the big hands used for the time of day, are covering up the vital information. Like I said, I posted this before, but am I the only one who feels this way?

The original chrono that came with the game was far superior for this purpose (remember that ?). It did have "time hands", but when used as a chrono, the minute hand served as seconds and the hour hand served as minutes. Much better IMO, simple, efficient and for our needs, much more practical. Heck, if we need to know the time, All we need to do is look down in the lower right hand corner to see the digital readout, so why do we need the time displayed on the chrono? Sorry,,,for blowing off steam, it's just one of my pet peaves !
