It's pressed for time (9)

I believe the answer is:

stopwatch

(Other definitions for stopwatch that I've seen before include "Timepiece used to measure race results" , "instrument" , "Race timer" , "Timepiece for exact timing" , "Timer for races, etc" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
