Am I the only one who always runs the chrono function on my chronographs?
I understand the belief that using the function only when needed saves wear to the drivetrain but I have always ignored this advice, choosing instead to believe keeping the oils in play keeps them from thickening. I can only give my anecdotal observation;...
I believe (certainly could be mistaken)
That a vertical clutch system adds no extra wear on the drivetrain…🤔 this is above my pay grade, though maybe someone can opine?
I "think" you're right on the vertical clutch but might there still be places where lube could become less happy, congealed? I would agree with that idea which is why I try to make
sure all my watches actually run at least once a month.

Even if we don't always think that way, a chrono is a serious complication, yet often taken for granted.
So it is something to admire.
more complicated than most things
with buttons and lever disengaging and engaging parts of the movement, unlike most complications which add a continuously running component.
That is a good one Emil
I have no chronographs at all. So i have no problem with inactive complications. But if i ad one to my wc, a Navitimer would be the first i think of. Not every Navitimer, i will go for very rare and not common one.
A nice collection of chronographs!!
I still don’t know the final word on it; whether to run it permanently or use only when needed… Regards
I use chronographs daily, so no need to have them running continuously.
I would understand that concept on a flyback chronograph that can be reset and restarted with but one button pressure. Howeverwer, it would be absurd having to stop the chrono, reset it and start it again when I need it, since that needs three pressures o...
