Tachymeter Scale

The fixed black ion-plated bezel features a tachymeter scale. This scale allows you to measure speed over a known distance (e.g., 1 kilometer or 1 mile) or to measure production rates. To use, start the chronograph when passing the starting point. Stop the chronograph when passing the finishing point (e.g., 1 km mark). The number indicated by the central chronograph seconds hand on the tachymeter scale corresponds to the speed in units per hour (e.g., km/h or mph).

This watch is water resistant up to 100 meters (330 feet). It is suitable for swimming and snorkeling. Do not operate the crown or push-buttons while the watch is submerged in water. Ensure the crown is fully pushed in before any contact with water.
