Not to split hairs, but because it's an important point to understand, the machine cannot measure amplitude. First, there's no sound at the far end of the balance wheel swing, and second, that "turnaround point" in the balance wheel does not come at a fixed amplitude anyway. All the machine does is measure how quickly you go through the first X degrees (where there are ticks book-ending that range) and then it infers, basically approximates, how far it thinks it will go total.

This may or may not be useful:
