Hi there, I left my Breitling Blackbird in my bag (ironically to protect it) but I guess it started the chronograph but now it won´t stop running when I press the stop/reset pusher.
Has anyone else had this problem and how is it resolved?
Cheers!

Did you press hard enough?
Pushers on mechanical watches are harder to push than on quartz.

And if you are using the reset pusher it wouldn't stop - you need to stop with the top pusher.

Ha! It worked when i pressed really hard on the reset actually and then on the stop pusher. Never had to do this before. Very strange, I´m leaving this one on my wrist for now.
Thanks guys!

2:00 pusher = start and stop
4:00 pusher = reset.

You should not push the 4:00 (reset) pusher when the Chrono is running. You'd have to really mash it to depress it but you would also break something in the process.

Maybe the pusher screws are not fully unscrewed?
