More information
The legendary Multicenterchrono, which was mass-produced from 1941, was the first chronograph to display the elapsed time using an indicator placed in the centre of the watch (and of the field of vision), guaranteeing optimal legibility when measuring the time. The hour and minute hands, along with the chronograph seconds and minute hands, were set at the very centre – and not in counters inside sub-dials at 3, 6 or 9 o'clock – hence the name "Multicenterchrono".
