    Hi everyone.

    Very pleased with my watch I got today but can't seem to stop the chronograph on it. The stop button doesn't seem to stop the chrono. It does the second hand with a full depress.

    Am I just being a stupid newbie? Will go back to shop tomorrow but as I'm inpatient I woondered if anyone could help me on here.

    Try pressing the top chrono pusher again...

    and then the bottom pusher to reset.

    Thanks for the quick reply.

    That's not working :(

    The top button is stopping the second hand when I push it in fully but however I press the button normally the small circle timer (the seconds counter) is not stopping.

    It sounds like it's broken!! Or maybe I'm being stupid?

    The small seconds hand is your running seconds

    and the chrono pushers shouldn't effect that dial at all. The large "sweep" hand is your chrono seconds and it is started and stopped by the top chrono pusher and re-set by the bottom pusher.
    Sounds as if everything is ok.
    By unscrewing and pulling out the crown of your watch, you will be able to stop (or "hack")the small seconds hand.
