If within the first minute, a distance greater than one

mile or kilometer is covered, 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 let-

ters “N”, “E”, “W”, “S” (for

the four compass direc-

tions) or compass 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.

TO MEASURE THE TIME REMAINING:

Set the triangle to the hour or minute position when

you wish to complete the activity, and check the

watch periodically for progress towards that goal.
In the illustration shown on the previous page on the

right you can stop when the minute hand reaches

the 20 minutes past the hour position.

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 dis-

tance 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.
