I just got my early Tricompax back from service and I notice that the chronograph second hand does not move evenly, seems to skip beats. I called the watch maker and he told me this was typical because of the way the wheels line up in very old chronographs. He did not that the jumper spring to reset the chronograph was broken and since he had the watch for such a long time, he didn’t replace it. Just means the reset pusher does not pop all the way back out. I have a video, not sure how to post it though. Is this acceptable after paying a lot for overhaul? Or should I push the issue? Also is what he told me true or is there a potential problem? The specs on the watch are really good. Any help would be much appreciated.
