    Works exactly the same with Miles. Used to measure the speed of an object over a fixed distance, period. If it goes one mile in one minute, its going 60 mph (works on the bezel). If it goes 1km in 1 minute, its going 60 kph (also works on the bezel).

    Some additional facts about the tachymeter:
    1. There's a complication found in early-mid century chronographs like the Tissot Janeiro called a spiral tachymeter. You can calculate speed (slower than 60km/h) for intervals longer than a minute
    2. You can also calculate how many units of something can be completed in an hour. It's calculated by 3600/n, where n = chronograph seconds

      Another method is: when you get in the line, instead of using a stopwatch look at the time. Then simply subtract that from the time at the end 2 hours later or whatever, then you can figure out "hey, we've been in this line 2 hours".
      Also works for car trips.

    I'll tell you 2 reasons why the tachymetric scale on a watch is useless:
    1) If you want to mesure 1km you need an Odometer but, unless you carry it in your pocket, it’s a little hard to count a kilometer precisely.
    2) the tachymetric scale mesures the average speed not the instantaneous speed...for that you need a completely different calculation.
    I hope someone will understand.

    I use it to measure speed in a 100 meters. You divide the stopped number by 10 and that gives you the km/h. For example, if you measure Usain Bolt's speed when he broke 100m record, you'd stop the watch at ≈10 second (2 o'clock) position which is 400 on the tachymeter. Divide 400 by 10 and his speed ks roughly 40 km/h.

    FYI, That's not for the driver. It's to time laps from outside the car on the side of the track. The speed indicator doesn't give you the average speed for 1 km. It will move up and down constantly when driving on a racing track with a manual car shifting gear. You're not driving in a straight line with an automatic car. You HAVE to make that speed indication move like a windshield cleaner to race; of course top racing cars also display average speed. But it's still useful for racing sports.

    You can also use it to judge how far loud events are.
    Say an explosion happens right in front of you. Since it was right in front of you, hearing it would be relatively instantaneous. You don't need the watch here, you need medical help. That same explosion happening 10 kilometers away would mean you'd hear it around 30 seconds later. It's close to 1km for every 3 seconds, or 1 mile for every 5 seconds. This applies to lightning and thunder, too, since they also follow the laws of physics.
