TACHYMETER RING
The tachymeter feature can be used to measure speed in miles per hour
(MPH), nautical miles per hour (knots) or kilometers per hour (KPH) using the
sweep second hand and the scale on the wall above the watch face. You
need to know the actual distance you are covering in miles or km.
Start the chronograph with the second hand at zero (the twelve o’clock
position). Within the first minute, the second hand will point to the rate for a
one-mile (or one kilometer) course: if it takes 45 seconds, the hand will point
to 80 at that position – 80 MPH or 80 KPH.
If within the first minute, a distance greater than one mile or kilometer is cov-
ered, multiply the tachymeter number by the distance to get the actual rate:
if you went 1.2 miles in 45 seconds, multiply the 80 by 1.2 – 96 MPH.
COMPASS RING
If your watch is equipped with a movable ring around the dial marked
at the letters “N”, “E”, “W”, “S” (for the four compass directions) or com-
pass degrees, you can use this feature to find an approximate compass
directional reading.
1) Lay the watch on a flat surface, or hold it so that the face is parallel to the
ground.
2) Locate the sun and point the hour hand at the sun.
3) In the A.M., rotate the ring until the “S” (south) marker is halfway between
the hour hand and 12:00 (after the hour hand or within the shortest dis-
tance between the hour hand and 12:00).
4) In the P.M., rotate the ring until “S” is before the hour hand and halfway
between the hour hand and 12:00.
