Couldn't help thinking of this Speedmaster advert from 1957 or 1958. I just read the advert's copy today and noticed that one thing you could do with the tachymetric scale is measure a worker's productivity (in widgets/hour). I can just imagine going to one of my engineer's cubicles, standing behind him/her with my Speedmaster, and clocking how long it takes to complete a particular drawing feature.
