(u-s:b /Chronoswiss) Since the beginning of the 19th century, innovative Master-watchmakers have longed for an interesting ticking instrument that would enable them at least to fictitiously master or manipulate precious time to some degree. At the push of a button, a hand, prominently positioned in the center, started moving, stopped and jumped back into its original position. At the same time, the other hands, whose task it was to display the hours, minutes and seconds, continued undisturbed. It is no surprise that the victorious career of the described Chronograph was inevitable. After all, it is one of the most versatile timekeepers ever made. The past hundred years not only brought this time keeping multi-talented masterpiece to the wrist, but also saw a constant rise in functionality. Part of this functionality, included the utilization of two pushers for control, the addition of automatic winding and the ingenious fly-back-mechanism to eliminate the time-consuming laps before re-starting.
Theoretically, the story of the Chronograph could be considered concluded, but just theoretically. Since it is a known fact that there are people with the unshakeable belief that that which should be done, also could be done. One of these people is Gerd-Rüdiger Lang, who bears his nickname “Mr. Chronograph” for good reason. The owner of the Munich-based watch manufacturer Chronoswiss occupies himself regularly with Chronographs, their great past, their present and with whatever is possible in the future in this area of the art of horology.
Proof for this claim is the exclusive, recently unveiled Chronoscope with ball-bearing switch-wheel. Further evidence is Lang’s newest chronographic creation called Timemaster. This Chronograph simultaneously embodies multi-functionality, tradition and innovation in addition to what can simply be called “great looks”. The interior, which is naturally mechanical, is a skillfully developed version of the automatic Caliber Eta. 7750. Chronoswiss has finally supplied this classic, which celebrates its 30th anniversary in 2003, with a practical fly-back mechanism. Further more, the 30-minute counter was turned at a 90 degree angle and moved to the “3” position with the help of an additional gear train. No less than 29 jewels ensure perfect function of the whole. Of course, the case back with exhibition glass allows undisturbed insight into the detailed masterfully crafted microcosms composed of 27 parts.

In contrst, the visual qualities of the Timemaster Chronograph are immediately eye-catching. The case, dial, hands and strap illustrate the passion for detail, which has distinguished Chronoswiss for twenty years. There is no doubt that the dimensions and proportions between the dial and hands fit accurately to a millimeter. Additionally, the fact that the fly-back pusher has a red marking indicates absolute precision and the purposeful exploration of matter. This way, the danger of mal-operation is reduced significantly.
Because black dials with palpable luminous equipment are not to everyone’s liking, Chronoswiss offers a bright Super LumiNova C3-Version with a dark print.

Finally, Gerd-R. Lang also considered an often-neglected group of customers while creating the Timemaster Chronograph: Left-handed people and other contemporaries that like to wear their watch on the right wrist. They all have the option to receive a right-left reversed variant where the crown and pushers are located on the left side of the case. In other words; ergonomics will no longer be an issue in the future. As far as we know, the Timemaster Chronograph is the first Chronograph in series with a fly-back function and optional crown on the right or left side.
