Abstract (en)

[origin: EP1491972A1] Wristwatch with a rattrapante or split-seconds mechanism has rattrapante hands (5, 6) that operate in a normal mode by moving synchronously with the hands (2, 3) of the normal time display with the hands in an overlapping position. In stop mode they can be used for marking a selected time point. After a selected time interval they again move synchronously with the main hands. An independent claim is made for a rattrapante mechanism for integration in a watch with normal hour, minute and second hands.
