    Today is July 5th 2024, my 62nd birthday. I received a citizen watch and thought about my large collection of watches. I figured now that I’m old, retired and slowed way down, I might as well finally find out what the hell this tachymeter is used for. Thank you for the awesome explanation. Now….im off to determine some speeds, production numbers, etc.

    I've literally worn a watch with a tachymeter for several years. Tonight I got extremely high and was looking at my watch and decided to look it up. Now that I know the basics, I'm gonna look into why the numbers depreciate so quickly at first. Thanks for this video and for the rabbit hole I'm about to go down tonight!

      If you didn't figure it out from his initial formula, it is a simple division equation. 3600 is the numerator which is sec/hr. The denominator is seconds elapsed, so the equation is always 3600 sec/hr * 1 (unit of measurement whether it be km, mph, or watches as an example / (X seconds). the seconds cancel out and you are left with Unit of measurement / hour.

    Another use:
    *To count your heart rate (beats per minute)*
    When you detect the first pulse on your wrist, start the chronograph, keep counting and stop when you detect the 60th.
    Read the number on tachymeter.
    Example: from the 1st pulse to 60th pulse you take 40 seconds, it points to 90 in the tachymeter, so your heart rate is 90 bpm.

    • @ChristianUtama
      @ChristianUtama 3 года назад +4

      @Verbal DK say that your heart beat is 90 bps, so the tachymeter should be pointing at 900 (if you use the divide by 10) but tachymeter scale max is 500.
      You can use division by 2, 4, 5 it means more calculation is done, but if you're okay with it then do it because it will be quicker too.
      I just want to show the basic of measuring heart beat and the easiest way to just read the result on the tachymeter scale.

    • @ranietsd1
      @ranietsd1 3 года назад +8

      If your heart rate is 120 then it will only take half minute to measure it with this basic method. If you're good with division, you can use division by 2, 4 or even 5 to make it even quicker.

      It's also useful to verify your speedometer. I've done that numerous times with my various motorcycles I've had over the years. (Motorcycle speedometers are notoriously inaccurate). Just replacing tires has a huge impact on it's accuracy as well. It's easier for me o just look at my watch than to fiddle with a smart phone will riding.

      @@CapeTownTom There's really no math at all to do. You can for instance use two physical 1km milestone indicators to be sure of your distance; can even remove your watch from your wrist and hold it in one hand so you always have both hands on your handle bars.
      Approach the first milestone at speed, you press one pusher, approach the next milestone, press the same pusher again, you never look at the watch at all. All you have to do is glance at your bike's speedometer once between the two milestones to get a reading.
      Then you pull over safely and everything, and look at your watch. All you do is compare your speedometer's reading, you hopefully still remember :D, with your tachimeter reading. If you're traveling at 60 kph you're gonna take 60 seconds to travel 1 km, so you don't have to ride dangerously either, quite on the contrary, it can be a slow ride.
      Also, you want to ride at a rather slow speed, because the faster you travel, the harder it is to get an accurate reading on a watch face tachimeter scale; just look at a tachimeter scale, you'll see how it is busier towards in the beggining, aka, the fewer seconds you need to elapse that kilometer, aka, riding like a maniac.
      ...
      Remember, people used to use mechanical watches all the time to tell distances, in fact relied on them, heck, soldiers under pressure of losing their lives did it. And better believe it, an uneducated dude under pressure of having their butt shredded was far from some genius mathematician. (And, yes, soldiers used to use telemeter scales, but the reading was the same, if they had the luxury of a stopwatch they didn't even need to look at their watches between the two events)
      It's a simple reading a tachimetre reading. I guess we assume that it's hard or cumbersome because we never used the technology, never had to, but it was never intended to be hard, on the contrary, it was invented to remove the need for calculation, the need to do the math. It's an instant reading.
      Many that used tachimeter scales would even learn the scale by heart, could approximate the speed without need for the tachimetric indication on regular stopwatches.
      And you know, just how you don't need to be reminded of the basic interaction with your smartphone after you get used to it, just as you feel that it's the simplest thing in the world, so does it feel to read a tachimeter to someone who's done it once or twice. And overall using a smartphone is at least one order of magnitude more complicated than reading a watch, but again, we're used to them so we don't perceive it as a challenging interaction.

      I'd be curious to see. I have a diver's watch with a rotating bezel and I use it to time all sorts of things or just set it to zero when I start something so I can see quickly how long I've been going. It's basically equivalent to remembering the time at which I started and doing a subtraction, but I can't live without it.
      Maybe people who have it and know how to use the tachymeter end up finding uses for it everywhere though it does seem less likely than for my dive watch bezel which has a simpler function.

    Basically, it tells you how many times an action can be repeated in an hour, based on how long it took to complete in seconds. ANY action. In the video it shows that if it took an event 20 seconds to happen, then the tachymeter tells you it could be repeated 180 times over an hour. So drove a mile in 20 seconds? Then you can drive a mile 180 times in an hour, e.g. 180 miles an hour. Ate a peanut in 20 seconds? Then you could a peanut 180 times in an hour, or 180 peanuts by the end of an hour. Packed a box in 20 seconds? Then you could pack boxes 180 times over an hour.

    0:29 why from approx 7 seconds? So they could fit the word tachymeter on the bezel?

    Basically, its a way to translate into its equivalent : Per Hour Count = Your Count x its corresponding Tachymeter Value.
    This way you can count anything per hour, by measuring them in seconds-- whether it's distance or number of cars made

    Hello Mr. Erik Ternsjo, Very good video! As far as I know, Omega invented the "Tachymeter", as a stationary dial indicator on a wristwatch. In the meantime, stationary dial indicator(s) are not uncommon on gauges such as pressure gauges and vacuum gauges. As far as I know, Rolex invented the rotating bezel diver's watch, (not uncommon on a dial indicator) that was (NOT bidirectional) as it only rotated counterclockwise so it would NOT indicate a extended elapsed time for the divers air supply error by mistake. Please reply. Dave...

      Not being disrespectful BUT..... why would a person need this function because they are ex-military?

    You missed taking advantage of a rotating tachymeter dial (on those watches that have it). Then you don't need to go to the stopwatch. Just rotate it so zero is wherever the second hand happens to be when you start your measurement.

    • @OrdinaryCritic
      @OrdinaryCritic 4 года назад +2

      ACitizenOfOurWorld, those rotating bezels aren’t tachymeters, though. Those are “dive bezels.” Tachymeters don’t turn.

    I think you should make a review of a watch with a minute repeater as it is the most complicated movement and if possible a patek philippe, good video btw
