thedoctor Posted August 16, 2006 Report Share Posted August 16, 2006 I just received a nice Breitling quartz chrono from Neil. The seconds hand for the chrono didn't reset to 0. It would reset to 58. I took it to my watchsmith who showed me how to align the seconds hand to zero by pulling out the crown and hitting the chrono start button repeatedly which advances the seconds hand to wherever you want it. He said something about how to align the minute hand totalizer but I wasn't paying too much attention. Does anyone know how to align it. Right now after screwing with the watch it's pointing at 20.

Pull out the crown so the watch stops. Then push the upper button, keep pushing it in until second hand returns to 12. That's all there is to it.

alligoat Posted August 17, 2006 Report Share Posted August 17, 2006 Cool, I just tried it on my Baxx & Bloom quartz chrono (a Breitling knock-off) and now the second hand resets to 12 o'clock. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
