Joel at BBG posted this great video of the Girard-Perregaux Scuderia Ferrari Foudroyante Rattrapante. It’s a split second time with Foudroyante (trans. “jumping hand”) complication which displays 1/8 of a second. This is actually the first time I had heard of the complication and looks pretty wacky. Interestingly, Panerai does one too with probably the same movement.
