Stop watch is 600 Boots is 300
By taking the insperation tree 2nd you are guaranteed to save 900 Gold. 900 Gold, that means just for clicking a rune you started the game with 900 gold on your opponent while they have to struggle to build items.
If we want to dig in a little bit deeper .... :
Stop Watch is worth 600 gold when you get it at 6 MINUTES
Boots can be obtained at maximum 10 minutes and you get it 30 second earlier for every kills and assists, but is it worth 300 gold?
It gives you an extra 10 movespeed. if you do some quick math, 1 movespeed cost about 12 gold. So those boots are worth about 420 gold
Also, upgrades are 50 gold cheaper, which brings the value of boots to 470 gold.
Some people get stopwatch only for the 1 time use stasis and then sells it back. Boots are pretty much required by every champions and you'll be mostly keeping
Technically stopwatch rune is only 300 since a commencing stopwatch has an increased combine cost.

Not even sure why you were downvoted, since you're mostly correct.

Personally I think it's because players who are abusing it don't want to admit how over powered the rune actually is.
Or it's because he's wrong and stop watch from the rune only counts as 300 gold towards the items.

Actually 950 gold because the magical footbitch makes tier 2 boots 50 gold cheaper.
Make a broken stopwatch worth 0 gold. now using stasis has a real consequence...
At that point the whole concept of consumable items that softens the build p for permanent use items gets totally out of the window. The item is good as it is.
It doesn't have to apply to the normal stopwatch.
The commencing stopwatch could morph into a broken commencing stopwatch that is worth less (or even 0) gold... this would weaken the rune without affecting the normal stopwatch.
(I don't think the rune needs to be nerfed btw, but if needed this particular change could nerf the rune without altering the buyable item)
didn't they nerf already the gold cost of stopwatch by runes on pbe?

This is just terrible.
Oh my god that would have drove me nuts.
they should make it available at level 10 like boots
Who's watching the stopwatches?
they are moving stopwatch and boots into the same rune tier so you are forced to choose between them, on the pbe. since they are nerfing footwear by 50g i will probably just choose stopwatch.
I just hate that it's free.
Stopwatch the stopwatch tree?
What if you couldn't upgrade the Stopwatch from Rune into anything else? Since its effectively a single use Zhonya's AND 800 gold.
The stopwatch is only worth the gold towards items if you buy it from the shop. The rune only benefits like 300 gold towards the items.
