Jump small second hand in AP RO offshore chronograph
New in AP and choose Safari as my first AP. I have some questions and thanks you all for the answers.
Just bought it from AD. I find that sometime the small second hand is jumped forward for 1-2 seconds after I push stop the chronograph. After jumping, it will pause for the same duration as it was jumped and then continue. So the time remains continue normally. Is it normal of this calibre 3126 to be like this? Or should I send it back to AD? If it is normal variation of this calibre, or anyone has the same issue, I prefer keeping it and enjoy this stunning watch.
Many thanks

It is the small second hand (time) that jumped
For mine, it is the small second hand, not the chronograph. And it jump when stop the chronograph. I heard about jumping of the chronograph hand when "start" the chronograph before as you mention. That's very interesting.
Congrats on your 1st AP and welcome to PuristSPro!
The jump is normal as what Michael has already said. Cheers, Anthony
