My dear Count your explanation benumbs me.

 

A practical example from you would be more than welcome.
I happen to be wearing my DS right now, using all of its functions on an unregular but often daily basis.
Such things like taking 4 different eyedrops totaling 11 times per day with 15 minutes delay between them and then cooking spaghetti al dente to 7 3/4 minutes. Those are just some of life*s little concerns. My life, I must admit.
This coming week I will pick up my Triple Split, ordered on a waiting list from my AD about 2 1/2 years ago.
I had almost given up hope of getting one - or my present ability to pay for it.
The "Double Totaliser" as I call it (12 Hours) will be a boon, since the 30 minute on the Double Split constrains my field of activity.
Still I will be using the Double Split - and other chronographs - for immensely practical everyday purposes.
Tool watches? Why not, albeit in an exalted category of "made to be used".
So much for the horological writers who consider the Triple Splits as a n utterly useless piece of gear and then go on to praise perpetuals, repeaters and all the rest.
There may be some confusion between the chronograph hands (blue or black) for the minutes) and the rattrapant hands (golden) at least that was the way for me at the very beginning.
Best wishes and keep on keeping tim
