Only if it's battery-driven :-). Is it an ETD if it's wind-up? Shouldn't this question, although interesting, be addressed to ETSC?

My understanding is that no ETDs are allowed during the temperament
section of the RPT tuning exam...

However, I know a few technicians who use the second hand on their 
analog wrist watch as a guide to set beat speeds. 

So a wrist watch is technically a electronic device that assists with
tuning. Does that make it an ETD and therefore disallowed during
the tuning exam?
