How to use the chronograph?

Referring to the watch Chronograph, which was used to calculate horse races since the invention of the French Nichols Rieussec in 1821, the chronograph has since become inseparable from sporting events and is a key feature affecting events. In simple terms, the chronograph is a start, stop and zero mechanism that measures the functions of Tachymeter, Telemeter and Pulsations, and later extends single and double counting (speed) The difference between the pointer and the rapid return flyback flyback function. Chronograph operation is very simple, the first step: press the timer button, start the timer, the second hand began to move around, the second hand to go in a circle, minute counter to go a grid; minute counter go one circle, hour counter go Grid, and so on.

It can independently measure the time function of two time at the same time. It has two time-lapse hands and two hands. It can measure lap time (lapse time from one place to the next place) One of the complicated functions.

When the reset button is pressed in the chronograph measurement, the pointer will be reset to zero instantly and the timer will restart immediately. Flyback device to achieve a convenient continuous measurement, but the production of more difficult.

The timing related functions are all unified in a single press on the chronograph, with a single press to control the pointer to start, stop, restart and zero action.


In the maintenance of chronograph, as long as follow the start, stop, reset to zero the use of the order to reduce the internal gear wear watch, and do not be too frequent operation of the timing press, you can reduce the probability of failure, please understand the very truth.
