I can't stand digital timers (either they aren't loud enough, or I accidentally switch them off on my phone somehow). Does anybody have a recommendation for good mechanical timers for use in the kitchen or while working (I'm trying out time-based blocks of work to see if it improves efficiency)?

In my experience, industrial timers like these are very loud; I've used them for darkroom photography. You pay for it though: |
http://www.uncommongoods.com/product/double-timer These are awesome, as long as you don't need more than an hour. |
timetimer.com - a very simple, surprisingly effective visual timer. Procter & Gamble uses them. |
