Hello, I have a problem with the second hand on my chrono. When I reset it, it does not come back at 12 o'clock. I changed it by hand, I also removed and handed the needle at 12 o'clock. I also try holding the button at the top and pressing the button at the bottom. ... nothing works. How to do?!

Have you tried pulling the crown out and pressing both buttons until the hand spins round then press the top button this will advance the chrono secondhand one second at a time repeat until the hand lines up with twelve press the bottom button again and the other hands can be adjusted in the same fashion then push the crown back in once every thing is in sync.

If you have tried this are you sure the hands are seated correctly on the pivots ?

Reset is a sudden move back to zero( indicator is at hour 12)  of stop the watch function.

You shouldn,t worry the fault is not in the movement, rather the hand.

If you want to try fixing it yourself, 

Remove the stop watch hand. Reset to zero. Smear nano amount of glue on arbor the hand goes on, install hand at zero. Let glue dry well before reuse.

If it didn,t work enjoy your watch as is.

Regards joe

    • people be honest.... Swatch is evil for the watchmakers and repairers, BUT not everything in watches from Switzerland is from the Swatch-Group. As far as i know, Selitta got sacked by Swatch as a Movement-Assembler for them and they started to produce Movements in their own Name with slight Modifications. As far as i know, they sell Parts to the Market for their Movements. In most cases, if a ETA-Movement fails, it is a valid Option to replace it with a Selitta Movement, which i consider the Solution for this Mess with the Swatch-Group...... I have no Connection to anybody at Selitta, but being a Swiss-Guy, i still like to have Swiss-Made Watches, but not from the Swatch-Group.   ok ? regards, Ernst
    • Just one more greedy act by Swatch. They started a number of years ago here in the US..cutting off supplies to watchmakers that could build complications that many Swatch houses couldn't even touch. Old school masters who had gone through some of the most prestigious houses in the world. Otto Frei has some statements on their page about it. I tell all my customers to avoid new Swiss watches like the plague,..unless they just want an older one in their collection that still has some parts out on the market, or they have really deep pockets and don't mind waiting months and paying through the nose to get it back. Plenty of others to choose from..IE Seiko,..or other non-swiss brands Even a number of Chinese brands are catching up with the Swiss,..and I think that in time, their actions will be their downfall
    • Yes. If that's not what you are experiencing...start looking for something rubbing. A 1st guess is that one of the hands is rubbing against the hole in the center of the dial. Especially if you now have lower amplitude in face up/ face down positions.
    • Once a movement has the dial and hands put back and it is recased, would you expect the assembled watch to have the same amplitude as when the movement is in a movement holder and is without hands and dial? Thanks
