Most sports watches are not limited to dynamic design or the use of certain materials - for one to be considered sporty, it must also have sporty functions. The most important, of course, is the stopwatch, often presented in the form of a much more precise and better-looking chronograph. Another is, of course, the tachymeter.
Choose tachymeter watches and see what great tools they will become in your hands!
A tachymeter is not actually a mechanism in a watch, but more a way of using it. This is because it is based on chronograph indications - it is a graduation on the watch face or bezel that allows you to determine the average speed. This is one of the best features for any runner who is trying to improve his or her pace while covering a well-known route. Also, a professional driver will be pleased with a watch with a tachymeter, as it will allow him to determine the average travel time, for example, to work or between frequently traveled points, which in turn will allow him to better plan his departure time.
The principle of operation is simple. Let's assume that there is a distance of one kilometer to travel. At the moment of starting, we start the chronograph of the watch and at the end of the route we stop the measurement. The bezel of the watch should at this point indicate the speed at which we covered the route,
Among the numerous brands that can be found in our store there are many collections equipped with a tachymeter. Of the Swiss models, Aviator sports watches - designed with aviators in mind - particularly stand out. From the Japanese, it is worth noting Seiko watches - the tachymeter in these models is one of the most beautifully designed. For fans of more sporty watches, a great choice will be Festina watches. The tachymeter in them will be perfect for helping you cover distances by bicycle.
