Bright green sport band - Special rare edition with black pin!!

Just kidding, it’s electrical tape ;)

Wow I love this band
 
Got this Chronograph face this week. I always been afraid of chronograph watches, never knowing how they work out. They look so confusing lol. I now know that one of those are the seconds. I don't know the other one. Some have more than 2 of them.

Chronograph is one of my favorites! As you have already figured out, the bottom sub-dial is used for showing the seconds when the face is functioning as a wristwatch, with the main dial showing the time. The top sub-dial is not used unless you start timing with the stopwatch (complication in the top right corner). At that point, the thin hand on the main dial shows the number of seconds elapsed on the stopwatch (you can customize the timescale for one revolution on the main dial). The top sub-dial then shows the number of minutes elapsed in stopwatch mode. This is how you are able to time intervals longer than one minute. You add the minutes shown on the top sub-dial to the seconds shown on the main dial to see the total time elapsed (or you just read the digital time elapsed at the top).

In the screenshot below, the top sub-dial shows about 2 minutes have elapsed and the orange hand on the main dial shows 10 seconds elapsed. Added together, you get the 2 minutes 10 seconds time shown at the top.

I love this watch face too but I stopped using it as I keep triggering the stopwatch function whenever I cross my arms.

I just can’t do it to my gold pin bands and modern buckles! Not yet.

Even to the point of getting an s5 in a couple years for very very cheap?

I am in the market for a gold SS and I’m confused. Are S4 and 5 the same tone? Are 6 and 7 the same as each other? Or are they all 4 different?

I watched one video where it’s very clear the 5 is darker and more rosey compared to tge 6.

Yeah you nailed it. 4 = 5, 6 = 7. And it looks like there’s no 8 if indeed Shrimp Apple Pro has seen the whole lineup. Which I think they have.

Yeah the only reason I want a 5 when I already have a 4 is that the 5 is the first one that got always on display.
