Rattrapante
A rattrapante is a chronograph that features a split-seconds mechanism. Therefor it is also known as a double chronograph (or fly-back second chronograph in the old days, which is something else than a flyback chronograph), as they have two hands. One for the intermediate time and one for the ongoing time. An invention from the 19th century by Adolphe Nicole.
.
The word ‘rattrapant’ comes from the French word ‘rattraper’ which means the act of recovering or recapturing.
