An instrument or device designed to measure or regulate time with extreme precision.
From Greek chronos (time) and mastix (scourge, or instrument of control). This is a rare term combining 'time' with a root suggesting mastery or control of time.
Chronomastix sounds like it could be a weapon from a sci-fi movie, but it's really just a super-fancy way to describe a precise time-measuring device—the kind of obscure word that makes clockmakers smile.
