Examples of chronometer

• He glanced at the astral chronometer. 

• His chronometer showed a minute and half to blast time. 

• The actual Greenwich time of the occurrence is calculated, and the error of the chronometer is thus determined. 

• There was still ten seconds to go, according to the big chronometer that had been installed in the lock. 

• With ordinary care the chronometer error can be determined in this way to within a few seconds, which is accurate enough for purposes of navigation. 

• The entanglement of the construction and function of the gravity chronometer shows how experimentation is entangled with the practices sustaining it.

• The gravity chronometer is a good example of a sturdy yet sophisticated piece of apparatus.

• And indeed, accuracy of time measurement is the crucial prerequisite for the gravity chronometer that calibrates other reaction-time measuring devices.
