Strapped on this fellow from the past today, the Ref. 3712 split-second chronograph.
Even after three decades, I still love its dial design, so clean and spare.

Strapped on this fellow from the past today, the Ref. 3712 split-second chronograph.

Fully agree, an old picture on this site from 10y ago, still wearing it from time to time.
But also often on loan to my children …. Sorry for the bad quality… Keep enjoying yours, Dirk ...
Thanks for sharing yours, Dirk !
Very nice to see, as I've not once run across one in the wild.
Great watch.
Time flies! I had considered its more modest sibling 3714 those days. Very reasonably sized for a Rattrapante.
Thank you, Goh
The 3714 definitely shares the same crisp appearance. I recall initially being daunted by the 3712's size, as it predated the big-watch boom that would come in the ensuing years, but I've certainly had enough time to inure to it since then.
The Rattrapante in action - and a perfect 11/1 split at that !
Timeless beauty in that dial indeed 👍
