This watch can time two separate events. When one button is depressed the chronograph starts. When the other button is depressed the chronograph hand splits and one of the hands stops. The other hand continues until the first button is pushed. A final push returns the hand to zero. This watch is actuate to 1/4 of a second, and when the chronograph is running the subsidiary hand jumps very quickly making one revolution per second. This makes it easier to tell the time to the correct fraction of a second.
This watch represents the final and highest development of the chronograph mechanism.
