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.

Are you sure it's a 30CH....
Hi, I've never seen a 30CH without flyback - and as you guessed correctly there it should be possible to reset without having it stopped before. The 13ZN (the predecesor) however was also produced in versions without flyback. If you post a picture of your...
