How do you wear your chronograph?

I start the chrono when I put it on and leave it running until I take it off.

Leaving it running drains the battery/power reserve too fast.

Leaving it running wears it out too fast.

[Poll] Do you keep your chrono second hand running?

Post by BostonCharlie »

Fooling with my Seiko chronograph, I would like to know what others do with the chrono feature. On mine, the counterbalance is big, so when the second hand is still it can eclipse the minute and hour hands as they go round. My only worry with leaving it running is that the battery will die too quickly.

Thanks for participating!

If you just walk around with your chrono running for no reason you are a monster. I am sorry I don't make the rules.
I wish that watch were 38mm?

I am running with scissors. And I’m not wearing a mask, either, lol. Bad to the bone.

I am a monster. I even match the chrono hand to the running seconds hand for a dual seconds setup. When I am not actually using the chrono of course. This is all fun and games until I have to have it serviced[emoji27]
