How to Use a Chronograph | Rolex Daytona 116500

Күн бұрын

A chronograph is one of the most useful complications available on a watch. Though originally designed for racing, they can be used to time all sorts of stuff. In this video we take a look at the chronograph, how to use it, and use the Rolex Daytona as an example.
In a coming video, we will look at the tachymeter and take a closer look on how to use it.

Tag Heuer Carrera Day/Date CV2A10 is my favorite chronograph because it was my first nice watch purchased.

Timex holds much more value than the price tag, i have an easy reader for daily use in work or formal situations, his case fits well under the sleeve and have an metal expansion band bracelet that’s so practical, making not only easy to read, but to wear too, and a weekender chronograph for the weekends and casual meets.

@toml.8210 Жыл бұрын

Some videos tell you the bottom pusher pauses the seconds hand, the resumes when you press again. That only works on certain chronographs like a Timex quartz. On this chronograph, it damages the watch!

You didn’t explain how to use the numbers on the dial!

@cldream 3 жыл бұрын

Where the chronograph seconds hand stops in under one minute, is in units per hour. Useful if you're calculating an average speed or rate (tasks per hour).

@melody3741 2 жыл бұрын

Technically slightly less than fully wound gets better accuracy and amplitude and the seconds hand can be slightly jumpy.

Sorry if this is a dumb question but the minute hand and hour hand sub dials do not move when the chronograph is turned off? I just want to make sure that’s accurate.

Shouldn't a chronograph have a separate counter for 1/100 ths of a second or at least 1/10ths?

@bobbysebastian3709 4 жыл бұрын

Chronographs come with tachymeter, telemeter, pulsometer, decimal scales ⚖️, respiration rate, slide rule scale. There are flyback, rattrapante, foudroyante types & regatta timer ⏲ chronographs.

hello,i have the exact same watch and it keeps getting late on time,i customize the exact time that is now,maybe 20minutes later its gonna be behind.To keep the watch going,i shake the hand every minute,and thats so annoying.Also,when i sleep,the watch is great and then when i wake up its behind for like 15-20minutes.What do I do?Do i have to keep shaking the hand every minute or is there a solution?Please help me🙏🏻

@ColdComrade 4 ай бұрын

you have a defective or worn out watch. It needs to be serviced, otherwise it is just a nice looking time piece.

The minutes dial only goes up to 30 minutes. How would you read for example 1 hour 45 minutes? Sorry if this is a stupid question. Thanks in advance.

@ColboyMontana 3 жыл бұрын

Ah...I think I've got it now. The hour dial shows every half hour. Depending on whether the hour dial hand is on a complete or half hour dictates whether minute dial is on the first or second 30 mins of the hour. Make sense?

@jesse113553 3 жыл бұрын

Can I use the pusher while wearing my chronograph? I know that engaging the crown should be done while not wearing the watch to prevent damage. Should I also take off my chronograph to use the timer? Just one my first one and not really sure.

The real question should be "How one can use a chronograph on an actual Daytona". I'll never have the opportunity to use one, as they are unobtainable.

@blendtecbrah5761 4 жыл бұрын

Daytonas are difficult, but not impossible to come by. You just have to have a good relationship with your AD. A good customer could probably get one in 12-24 months after registering interest.
