How do you time your cooking?
>God tier:
Vintage mechanical chronograph, an actual hourglass, a sundial
>High tier:
Mechanical center sweep, a modern mechanical chronograph
>Low tier:
Mechanical with subdial, a quartz watch of any sort
>Pleb tier:
The oven clock
>Kill yourself immediately tier:
The clock on some appliance, your "gut", your computer or tablet
>Do you even cook tier:
Smart phone, smart watch, or "I have never thought about this before"
>do you even cook tier
Anything other than using your internal clock and taking your food off the heat when it's done.

My cooking is ready in its own time. You are dangerously deluded my friend if you think a vintage mechanical chronograph knows how long a banana loaf takes.
>timing cooking
I use a metronome and count the tics and tocs until my food is ready.

the oven clock is more accurate, and it makes a fucking noise when it's done.

Mostly I just use my nose. Can you not smell when it's time to start checking the oven?
There's nothing wrong with using a timer when you first start learning, but after that they're mostly useless.
I use a shitty £3 kitchen timer. It lets me set alarms to the nearest second and can also just count upwards indefinitely. Very useful, and very cheap because unlike OP, I don't need to show off.

> time
I don't time. It's in the oven or on the pan as long as it takes for it to be the level of doneness I want it, and then it's taken off.
