- Start: When the object or vehicle begins to move, start the chronograph.
- Stop: Stop the chronograph after the object or vehicle has traveled a known distance (1 km or 1 mile).
- Read the Speed: Read the average speed directly on the tachymeter scale where the chronograph second hand has stopped.
For example, if the car travels one kilometer in 30 seconds, the second hand will stop at the 120 mark on the tachymeter scale, indicating an average speed of 120 km/h.

The Paul Newman dial's reappearance in the Chronomaster collection marks a significant event in vintage watch circles.
The dial showcases a classic "Panda" look with a white or silver base and contrasting black sub-dials, enhancing both style and readability. Black sub-dials accommodate chronograph functions, including a seconds sub-dial at 9 o’clock and a 30-minute counter at 3 o’clock. Luminescent indices and hands ensure visibility in low-light conditions, while the red chronograph seconds hand adds a vibrant touch. The tachymeter scale around the dial emphasizes its sporty character, making this reissue a highly sought-after treasure.
Landeron Mechanical Movement
Another new feature is that Nivada Grenchen’s Chronomaster models are now equipped with a Landeron movement, a nod to the brand’s history. Landeron, once a historic supplier of movements for Nivada, regains its rightful place in these new editions. This return to roots is highlighted by the integration of a sapphire caseback, allowing wearers to admire the mechanism in action.
The Chronomaster’s dial is a masterclass in design, featuring a distinctive "Panda" effect with its matt black base and contrasting sub-dials. The white or silver base is paired with black sub-dials to enhance readability, while the cream-colored luminous indexes and shiny silver hands provide both functionality and style. The chronograph functions are prominently displayed, with a seconds sub-dial at 9 o’clock and a 30-minute counter at 3 o’clock. A splash of red on the chronograph seconds hand adds a dynamic touch, and the tachymeter scale around the edge of the dial emphasizes the watch's sporty character.
