The fantastic Breguet Type XXII 10Hz Chronograph is going to be on exhibition starting January 14th, 2011 at La Cité du Temps in Geneva. This is the revolutionary Chronograph from Breguet that beats at 72,000vph!!! Zenith eat your heart out.
Here’s the video of the ultra-smooth chronograph hand. It turns one revolution ever 30 seconds to showcase the phenomenal smoothness. The 72,000vph translates to 20 movements per second, as opposed to the 8 that traditional 28,800vph movements achieve.

28,800 vph = 8 movements per second (not 6)
