Question about Longines 30CH Flyback
Hi all,
I recently purchased a vintage Longines 30CH Flyback chronograph watch. I was wondering what the flyback term for this watch meant? Is it the auto reset and restart while a timing is occurring? When I push the top chrono button to start the timing, and then I try to push the bottom chrono button, there is resistance (column wheel preventing the button to go in all the way?) and nothing happens. What I can do is push the top chrono button to start and then stop the timing, and then push the bottom chrono button to reset it to zero. Am I doing something wrong? Is my watch broken? Any information is appreciated. Thanks.
