Afternoon all,

This might seem like a silly question but i just wanted to check. From a previous post another member mentioned about using the chrono hand as a way to keep track of the date on a Speedy, would this cause additional damage to the movement at all being advanced a second each day? I know its not constantly running but wasnt sure if stopping the hand disengages the chrono fully or whether it only does that when its reset to 0 (12 o'clock) - hope that makes sense.

Many thanks,
Pete

 

That sounds utterly archaic, but I don't know of any reason that it would cause damage.

 

No issues doing it. Chrono stopped state is the same regardless of the position, it’s just not reset.

 

No it's fine.

 

Thanks so much for your responses... Appreciate it
