ok.. dont laugh at me because i dont know much about watches. i just got my first breigtling its a colt chrono. i noticed that there are 2 seconds hands (long skinny ones) one moves when i activate the chronograph and the other just stays at the 12. my question is what is the 2nd seconds hand for and how do i make it move?

Sounds almost like you have a Rattrapante... did they make a Colt Chrono with a rattrapante? If you push the bottom pusher after activating the chronograph does it start?

I'm guessing it's your minute indicator. Look if it moves over one minute after your chrono hand goes around once.
