Wristwatches are not allowed during school examinations from 18th of April at the university.

Wristwatches must henceforth be put away in bags, jackets or the like together with cell phones, MP3 players and other electronic equipment. During a school examination, an available wristwatch may henceforth be considered as attempted cheating on par with the use of other illegal aids.
