They are getting someone to phone me about it. And have offered to exchange it if needs be.
They have tried to sort things out for me but very poorly.

 

They activated the warranty yes

 

Thanks for all the replies. I feel better prepared to deal with it now.

 

Looks like it’s common to this movement in this watch. the guy at goldsmiths tried one of the watches there and it did the same thing

 

Seriously? How can that be

 

Maybe the module that is bolted on is causing it.
I’m sending it to TAG official repair centre to check it over.

 

My eye is keen. Nobody has seen this before. Might stick pins in my eyes then I won’t notice it.

 

Now we are waiting for Monaco owners in the forum to test this on their watches to see if there are others

 

I dont own a Monaco but have for sure not tested resetting my chronographs on different intervalls around the dial to see if the running seconds jump...

 

Another reason to buy quartz.

 

Why the hell would you?

 

If my Heuer 01 does this I will scream

 

Exactly. But now I feel I should

 

Try it, do it nooooow

 

Maybe that’s why they use a column wheel and vertical clutch on the new calibre 02

 

I feel i have opened up a box of vipers

 

I have more pins

 

I tested my Heuer 02. Worked fine.

 

Great stuff, I might try tonight

 

Tested my chronographs with running seconds:
PD Lemania 5100: no issue
Monaco calibre 15: no issue. Operates so crisp, reminds me of H02.
Carrera Calibre 17: slight hesitation in running seconds when both operating and resetting the chrono.
Other forum members with Calibre 17?

 

Happy to report that my Heuer 01 and Heuer 02 dont have this feature.
