Hey all,

I have B01/ chronomat 44. I rarely need/use the chronograph but I have run it a few times simply to follow its performance/etc. it seems like the primary minute and hour hands on the watch stop running after a while (sometimes after just 30-45 minutes), almost as if the watch has lost power. When I click the chronograph stop button, the watch begins operating again.

What am I doing wrong??

power reserve may be very low, try to fully wind it (ca. 40 crown turns) - if issue persists, watch needs service

Just did 40 turns to wind, started chronograph and it stopped about 10 minutes later. Pressed the pusher to stop the chronograph and the watch started up again

OMG, I have been searching for years for a way to stop time! I find it goes far to quickly lately. And all YOU have to do is press a button on your watch.

Consider yourself lucky..

Cheers :)
