Quick query - apologies if this has been covered before - I've searched and not found anything.
When resetting the chronograph, the second hand doesn't generally reset to exactly 0 / 12 o'clock, generally falling somewhere between 1 and 2 seconds short. From one point of view, it's not a massive problem as I'd rarely if ever use the chronograph function, on the other, it's annoying to have a flaw in an otherwise flawless watch.
Does anybody have any experience or knowledge of this, what the cause is and if it's a symptom of anything serious? I also have a Carerra with a Cal 12 movement, that one reliably zips straight back to 0 every time.
Cheers
