There is always the System.Timer timer.

That is probably easier to work with than the Stopwatch (which normally is used to measure how long time things take).

Code:

    var timer = new System.Timers.Timer();

    // Hook up the Elapsed event for the timer using a lambda
    timer.Elapsed += (o, e) => Console.WriteLine("Timer elapsed");

    // Set the Interval to 100 ms
    timer.Interval = 100;

    // Start the timer.
    timer.Enabled = true;
