How to use the tachymeter

If your watch has a tachymeter, you can easily determine speed and output per unit of time by reading the tachymeter numbers.

Some models have a scale notation intended to measure more than 1 minute.

How to measure kilometers / hour

  1. Measure the time (within 1 minute) it takes to run 1 km.

  2. Check the numerals on the tachymeter scale to which the stopwatch seconds hand is pointing.

  3. Ex.:

    If it takes 45 seconds to run 1 km...80 km/h
