Yes the small seconds runs continuously on a chronograph.

To set the time, unscrew the crown and ideally wait until the small seconds is at 12 (although it doesn't really matter), then pull the crown out two clicks to what is known as the second position - go easy and you'll feel the clicks. Then advance the hands by turning the crown anti-clockwise to set the correct time. Once it's set, push the crown back in and rescrew in the crown - not too much, just finger tight.

Incidentally, the first position is for the quickset date which allows you to set the date quicker than going through 24 hours by the advancing the hands . DO NOT use the quickset date between 8pm and 3am or else you can damage the mechanism. Outside of these times it is fine to use the quickset date.

The on-line manuals for the Chronomats are for the new models with an in-house movement. However, if you download a manual for a model equipped with the same movement as yours, all the functionality is the same. This will explain what everything does...
