Hi there,

I have to BCE here with A7750 movement. Both BCE are v2. The movements are serviced by different watchmakers. I've noticed that if I start the chronograph, on both watch, the large second hand will have a short momentary pause as the minute register advance. Is it normal? I don't believe I'm seeing this on my Skyland.

Any thoughts on this? Thanks!

I have not noticed this type of behavior In any of my chronographs. I have heard of It but no pause In any of mine. It does not sound like a big deal to me, good luck :) Mike

If it pauses, there could be too much pressure on the "spring" that engages the transfer gear, to move the minute sub dial hand. The "spring" I am refering to, is a little metal piece that is on the 60s chrono wheel.

Thanks for everyone's response! Much appreciate it!

Mine pauses then skips a little bit around 58 second mark. Will it mess up the chronograph timing?

Thanks again!

Agree with Bike Mike, the spring for the 30-minute wheel may need to be backed off. But it's also possible the 30-minute wheel is binding or not spinning as it should. Not likely though, if the movement has been serviced. Yes, if there is a slight pause (as the spring is overcome) it will obviously throw timing off by a fraction of a second. Not a huge deal, but I'm sure it would bug some individuals.
