NIKA Chronograph Watch
NIKA chronograph watch from the manufacturer
Throughout the long history of watchmaking, craftsmen have tirelessly improved the mechanisms of their products, trying to make them more accurate and endow them with additional features. One such feature is the chronograph. This concept is often confused with a chronometer due to similar names, but their meanings are completely different.
A chronograph watch is a kind of counter that allows you to very accurately measure small periods of time: minutes, seconds, hours. Its name comes from a combination of two words, translated from Greek meaning "record time". And due to the fact that the counter is not connected with the mechanism of the watch itself, with its help the measurements will be very accurate and of high quality.
How to use a chronograph in a wristwatch?
The chronograph movement is controlled by pushing buttons that allow you to start the countdown, stop it and reset the results. Single pusher chronographs are now being superseded by more complex versions such as the split chronograph with two hands. It allows you to watch two events with different duration and start time. Three buttons are usually involved in the control, which allows you to stop one of the arrows. Some chronographs can reset to zero and start a new countdown at the push of a button.
The chronograph is most useful for people associated with sports, but it can also be useful for representatives of other fields of activity, such as science, navigation and military affairs. For example, a tachymeter scale can be used both to measure the running speed of an athlete, and to measure the pressure or pulse of a patient.
