The average human's simple reaction time is 200 - 270 milliseconds (0.2 - 0.27s).
Athletes and trained persons e.g. 'Quick-draw McGraw' can get close to 150 milliseconds (0.15s).
Complex reaction times (responding to varying stimuli) should be higher.

Updated Report! - Introducing the Centigraphe Souverain - New Photos!
Moments before the exhibition took place on Monday, April 16th, 2007 at Montres Journe SA Geneva! Our gracious host Mr. Francois-Paul Journe. Distinguished guests, all accompanied by something familar on the wrist. Wait! Is that really a rose gold bracele...
Brad help me with this. (And pardon me if my question is dumb)...
If I get it (probably not) the Centigraphe operates (albeit with a 1/100 of a second accuracy, more later) like a normal chronograph in terms of measuring time up to 10 minutes. (How am I doing ?) The unique feature (excluding the patents stuff) here is t...
The 1/100th of a second accuracy claim is hard to understand
If the flying seconds hand moves 16 times per second....does it measure 1/16ths of a second? I don't see how it could with a 21,000bph rate. It doesn't say this is a foudroyante mechanism...and I don't understand how it could be. Thinking some more about ...
That's very interesting. F. P. Journe is always pushing the limits of design. The use. .
. . .of both the arbor and the barrel to drive the train and the chronograph is very neat and from what I gather, the ceintigraph hand jumps sixteen times per second but can be stopped at any point between 'jumps' thereby allowing a finer resolution of ti...
