: On my watch, I had it happen a few times: one because I knocked it

: cleaned. If you can't get the hands to centre, you'll need to
: get them to crack it open and fix it. But even if you can get it
: to reset after a few 'zero-ings', something is still loose
: inside and you might want to get it checked anyway (anything
: loose inside is only going to damage something else inside).

: As far as leaving the chrono running all the time, it shouldn't
: hurt your watch unless you smash it around a bit (which I don't
: generally recommend anyway).

Cheers Sean for the reply. The watch is running perfect. All chrono dials are reseting perfect .Its not a common problem it happened only twice and when I pressed the reset button a second time the hour chrono went back to the 12 position. This happend a couple of weeks ago its been fine since .Was your problem all chrono dials or like mine just the hour chrono staying at 6 and was yours more frequent than twice ?
