We are currently developing a smartphone app for professional-grade beat measurement and watch diagnostics
(tentative) Watch Tuner Timegrapher is a mechanical watch measurement application. After picking up the ticking sound of the watch and processing the data, it displays the rate, beat error, swing angle, number of beats per hour, etc. on the screen of a smartphone or tablet. It is useful for watch repair with an operation method that even beginners can easily handle.
