Tag Heuer indy 500 , problem im having is that on the chrono the 1/10th hand doesnt go back to original position ie pointing to the top. can this be adjusted ?

Pull the crown out to the first position, and then you may find that successive pushes of the upper pushbutton will move one of the chrono hands by one division, and the lower pushbutton will move a different chrono hand. Similarly if you pull the crown out to the second position, the pushbuttons will control the other chrono hands. In this way you can set each of the chrono hands to their zero positions. Hope this works..

Try this.

Pull the winder out fully. Then press the top right chronograph button to move the centre seconds hand on. Then push the winder back in.

on some models you should only pull the winder half way out.

good luck

are you sure you didn't just stop the chronograph?

Might need cleaning, oiling or other servicing ...

What do you think?

Thanks for your interest in FixYa.com

Try the following, which I discovered by accident on my Tag Professional. Pull the crown out to the first position, and then you may find that successive pushes of the upper pushbutton will move one of the chrono hands by one division, and the lower pushbutton will move a different chrono hand. Similarly if you pull the crown out to the second position, the pushbuttons will control the other chrono hands. In this way you can set each of the chrono hands to their zero positions. Hope this works for you. Geoff

Pull out crown and then push the upper button and hold it. The chrono hand should start move and you should be able to adjust it. If this doesn't work, try the same with lower button. When adjusted - push the crown back in. In fact there are very many variations how to reset chrono hand, but exact advise can be given if the movement caliber of particular watch is known.
Rate me, plz.

Unscrew the crown like you are setting the time. Make sure the time shown on the watch is not around 12 o'clock. If it is change the time to around 6 o'clock.

Then pull the crown out to the first click. Turn the crown to advance the date. When finished push the crown back in and screw it down tight.

Hope this helps,

Great watch! Operation should be pretty straight forward. The top button starts the chrono and stops it. The bottom button resets it. To calibrate the sweep arm into the right position pull the crown out to the first or second set position and press the start button until the sweep arm is in the start position you desire. This is typically 12:00 or 0.
If your chrono is not working then have the battery checked. If the battery has been recently replaced then make sure the watch doesn't need to be cleared.
I recommend you take this to a watch maker/technician who will be familiar with the service requirements of this model including resealing and pressure testing the watch to be sure it is sealed to its marked water resistance specifications.

Thanks!

Hi.  I just received the Tag Heuer Indy 500 with steel bracelet today for christmas from my wife.  I'm a smaller man and had to take out 3 links.  I'd never sell this watch so if you would like them...just write. [email protected]
