Chronograph

A chronograph watch is a sophisticated timepiece that goes beyond the basic function of telling time, incorporating additional features for measuring elapsed intervals with precision. Unlike a regular watch, a chronograph watch has one or more sub-dials on its face, each serving a specific timing function. These sub-dials typically include a seconds counter, a minutes counter, and an hours counter, allowing users to measure various time increments. The chronograph function is activated by pressing buttons on the side of the watch, which starts, stops, and resets the timers. The central seconds hand usually functions as the chronograph hand when the feature is in use. Chronograph watches are favoured for their versatility, as they offer practical applications such as timing sporting events, cooking intervals, or calculating speed. Beyond their functionality, chronographs are often appreciated for their intricate and stylish designs, making them popular choices for both professional and casual wear.
