Their aim with the Caliber 39 was to create a mass-production modular movement, capable of incorporating complications by just adding them on (in a modular fashion) rather than having to have a different plate. Instead of duplicating the variety of ETA's 7750, 6497, 2824, etc., they have managed to modularize a single movement, to be capable of being everything from a manual time-only, to a GMT, to a triple-date chronograph

Otherwise known as a stopwatch, a chronograph measures periods of time. A basic chronograph has a start/stop button and a reset button. Most chronographs measure seconds using a central seconds hand, while the time-only seconds hand is in a subdial. A split-seconds chronograph measures two periods of time that start together but end differently, such as a race.
