路The one thing to be aware of with a Speedmaster is it has two different Seconds hands.
The small dial near the 9 o'clock position is the regular Seconds hand that will go around whenever the watch is running.
The larger Seconds hand is for using the stopwatch feature.
It will normally rest at the 12 o'clock position until it is time to use the stopwatch.
The top pusher knob (on the right side of the case) turns the stopwatch on and a second push of it turns it off.
The bottom pusher knob (on the right side of the case) resets the stopped stopwatch hand back to the 12 o'clock resting position.
If you leave the stopwatch feature running all the time, then you'll need to wind the watch a lot more every day.
.
I don't ever really use the stopwatch, so I guess technically I could use it as a seconds hand, but that seems like it would cause extra strain. It's also not what it is intended.
Anything else I might want to know about the dials or winding or such? I try to catch it daily, but sometimes weekends and such it can lose its steam especially holidays. I think all the staying-at-home makes it harder to have this as a daily show watch. So far only my dogs are enjoying the Omega experience with me 馃槈
