Technical information
Telemeter
Scale showing the distance traveled by a sound in a certain time.
For example, to measure the distance separating you from a storm, start the chronograph
when you see lightning and stop it when you hear the resulting thunder.
A measurement of 3 seconds gives a distance of 1 km on the telemeter scale.
Tachometer
Scale showing the average speed of a vehicle.
Using the chronograph (Start/Stop) function, measure the time taken to travel 1 km.
The average speed can be read on the tachometer scale.
Ex: 20 seconds = 180 km/h
E.O.L. function (indication of the end of battery life)
If the seconds hand starts to move in 5-second steps, the battery should be changed by your Hamilton agent.
