As for using the chronograph function, I do try to use it daily for random activities like timing an exercise session, playing sports, cooking (rarely, LOL), reading, surfing online, etc...I think if one makes a conscious effort, anyone could find a use for a chronograph.
I own many amazing watches but I still think the chronographs are the ones that attract me the most. Call it a fetish, who knows 🤷♂️🤔
