Joey is not quite right.
Winding the watch will have no effect (as it is powered by a battery). The watch has a mechanical chronograph (that's why it is so smooth) but it draws it's power from the battery as well.
The hands stop on the watch after about half a day is the chronograph is only designed to measure periods of a maximum of just over 12 hours. The hour accumilator dial at three only goes to twelve max.
I have a Constellation chrono in silver / silver, very nice it is too.
Cheers, Chris
