Good info from txrob, but one minor correction, 28800 bph is 8 beats/sec, not 10. And the lower beat 21600 bph means 6 beats/sec, not 8. The difference is noticeable if you look very very closely at the sweep second hand.

There are a few modern 10 beat/sec movements (zenith and seiko I think, but they're pretty exotic.)

Math was never Rob's strong point. In 60% of his posts, he gets the sums right, in 40% he gets them wrong, the other 12% make no sense at all :hehehe:
