Chronograph (For Cal. 9R86, 9R84) A chronograph is a watch that has a stopwatch function in addition to a time display function. This watch features a stopwatch function which can measure time up to 12 hours. Before using the stopwatch function ① Make sure that the mainspring is sufficiently wound. Ensure that the power reserve indicator shows a full-wound state of the mainspring. When using the stopwatch, ensure that the watch is working. ② Make sure that the center chronograph second hand is pointing at the 0 position. If it is not pointing at the 0 position, press the RESET button. ※ Do not pull out the crown while the stopwatch function is operating, as doing so will stop the measurement.
