PERFORMANCE WATCH OVERVIEW
The chronograph
As you use this manual to learn about your Watch, the word
chronograph can potentially cause some confusion. Try to
remember this: a chronograph is a tool for measuring time.
So, you will notice a Chronograph Mode, but any time your Watch
functions as a timing tool, it operates using chronograph (or
timing) functionality.
