CHRONOGRAPH
Introduction
The chronograph seconds are displayed by a large center hand.
The minutes and hours are indicated by the 2 small counters.
The seconds hand and the counters are interconnected.
On certain models, the push-buttons are screwed down. To use the
chronograph, unscrew them, then screw them back down once you
have finished using them. To do this, turn them counterclockwise then
clockwise while pressing them down against the case.
Warning: After each use, always screw down the push-buttons to
preserve the water-resistance of your watch and to prevent any damage
to the mechanism.
Use
A. Press your watch’s push button at 2 o’clock: The center seconds
hand will start.
B. Press the same push button at 2 o’clock again: the center seconds
hand will stop.
C. Press your watch’s push-button at 4 o’clock: The center seconds
and the counter hands will return to zero.
Warning: While the second hand is working, never reset to zero to
prevent damage to the mechanism. Always check the second hand has
stopped before resetting to zero.
