[@nicktecky55]

Where to go? How about returning the split lap time to zero, with a third hand starting simultaneously? That would replicate the function of the "three stop watches" method that was always used on race tracks. One stopwatch is started at the start, and stopped at the end of the race. Two more watches are linked by a bar. Watch 2 is started simultaneously with watch 1. At the end of the first lap the bar is depressed, and watch 2 stops and watch 3 starts. The lap time is recorded from watch 2, and it is then reset normally. And so on.... The race time was also recorded per lap on the fly, as a back up. Or of course, you could download a $10 app... but that's not exactly the point is it?

[@greenygreen5308]

Indeed, whether this would be possible mechanically I don’t know, but if it were at least it would be useful. This triple split is of no use to anyone.

Nobody needs a mechanical watch to take the time. Any digital garbage is more precise. But a painting is also more worth than a photograph, and every cheap phone makes more detailed pictures than any of the great painters. It is art! Art needs no practical use. Art is, because we can.

I really can't understand why you can't appreciate both. I didn't know people loving watches were as immature as people hating on Samsung and Apple without seeing what both did for the industry. I mean I love ALS as much as Rolex but for different reasons. I am mind blown by the workmanship in the ALS, just as I love seeing John Mayer showing an ultra rare 1953 ref6204 Sub on Talking Watches. Both Brand have a huge importance in watchmaking in their own leagues. You won't find, with ALS, as much history as with Rolex. You won't find ALS finishing in Rolex movement. Just love both brand for what they are and stand for. However, you are allowed to hate Hublot, I'll give that.
