This multifunctional tool allows users to measure intervals of time without affecting the main time display, offering utility beyond simple timekeeping. The increasing popularity of chronographs can be attributed to growing interest in precision timekeeping and sports where timing accuracy is crucial, including racing and aviation.

However, the intricate mechanisms required for the stopwatch function can make chronographs bulkier and generally more expensive than standard watches. Nevertheless, the integration of digital technology, combining smartwatch capabilities, such as health tracking or connectivity features, presents a growth avenue for market expansion. The expanding sports and fitness market also presents a fertile ground for the development of specialized chronographs tailored to specific types of training and activities, harnessing both functional and aesthetic appeal to cater to niche markets.
