Accidentally left chronograph running on speedy 1863 movement
I started the timer earlier this morning and completely forgotten that it was on until about 6 hours later. Does it cause any harm to the movement?
Also, when I resetted it, it looks like the hour marker at the 6:00 subdial was a little to the left instead of being perfectly aligned in the middle at 12. When I ran it again several times afterwards for a few minutes, it looks like it went back to the 12:00 position. Is that normal? Thanks! |

No problem at all. I synch my chrono on my panerai to my tiny seconds indicator. it runs constantly and its not an issue.

Definitely not an issue. It just links to the running seconds and will use a bit more power but that’s about it!

Zero issues, that's what it's there for. Enjoy :)
