Some of you would have seen this before since I brought it to the 2nd anniversary GTG.
Just thought of sharing these pics which I took recently of the Hanhart Tachy-Telemeter. It's a discontinue model from Hanhart, driven by the Valjoux 7760 hand wound chronograph.

It's a replica of the WWII chronographs built for the military. You'll notice the asymmetrical arrangement of the chrono push buttons relative to the crown. The purpose of this peculiar arrangement is to allow the pilot to quickly differentiate the two buttons during combat situations, when he cannot take his eyes off the enemy plane.
