Bce woes

[Bender222]

I have never owned a chronograph watch before but whenever i use the chronograph functions it start/stop/resets the main second hand while the subdial second hand just continues. I dont think that is supposed to happen but I may be wrong. I was under the impression that all of the chronographic functions are carried out on the subdial leaving the bigger main hands constant. Is this something i can Fix b taking it to a jeweler and asking about it or do I need to send this back to china?

The chrono watch has a small running seconds subdial that always runs (BCE location at 9:00). The large chrono seconds moves only when chrono pusher is activated.

Some watches have it opposite - the large seconds hand is used for time telling and small one for chrono - but not here.

At 3:00 into this film you are given a video of how your BCE should operate:

Thats the way it should work. 9:00 subdial is the seconds hand and should constantly run

[Sir-Lancelot]

The small seconds will always run and never reset it is to tell time. The BIG hand is the chrono seconds.

Post a pic of your BCE, and leave the chronos alone. Unless you're timing 40yd dashes you don't need them.

Or cooking.

Or timing your farts.

The possibilities are endless!
