The distinctive feature of this rattrapante chronograph lies in the easy handling which nevertheless provides the same functionality as the classic design. Due to the minute counter the pusher in the crown only needs to be pressed for one minute; when the pusher is released, the rattrapante hand jumps automatically to the first seconds hand and moves along with it.
