Footnotes:
Since its introduction two decades ago, the Datograph remains at the pinnacle of chronograph design with its combination of column-wheel control, flyback mechanism, and precisely jumping minute counter. The harmonious symmetry of the dial houses a flyback chronograph movement that allows the stopwatch to be instantaneously restarted for continuous timing, without having to stop, reset and then restart.
