A FEAT OF ENGINEERING.

As the world's first flyback chronograph with a double rattrapante mechanism, the DOUBLE SPLIT opens up a new dimension in mechani-cal time measurement. Beyond the ordinary stopwatch functions of a conventional chronograph, it can also handle lap-time measurements, time comparisons, and fastest/slowest lap measurements. Its addition-al flyback minute counter makes it possible for the first time to use these rattrapante functions in a truly meaningful way, namely for events that last up to 30 minutes - as opposed to conventional rattra-pante mechanisms that could only measure times of up to 60 seconds.

EMINENT MECHANICAL ARCHITECTURE.

The newly developed balance of the DOUBLE SPLIT beats at a fre-quency of 21,600 semi-oscillations per hour, allowing measurements to an accuracy of one-sixth of a second. Moreover, error-free read-ings are assured by the precisely jumping chrono minute counter and the precisely jumping rattrapante minute counter. During an ongoing time measurement, the flyback function will immediately stop and reset the chronograph hands (and, with them, the rattrapante hands if they are still running) with only one press of a button. A new measurement begins instantaneously when the button is released again. This skips the otherwise necessary "stop" and "reset" steps.
