In Response To: Suspicious Repair - Vintage Chrono Crown (ref. 73473) ()

Hi Doug,

You don’t need to be concerned, your chrono is equipped with a Valjoux 7734 movement, that isn’t equipped with a “quick date” function (like most of the older watch movements, actually).

To set the date faster than 24hr by 24hr, just go back and forth between about 21:00 and 00:00!

Best
