" ...  The second hand doesn't return to the 12 o'clock position like it should.  ...  "
comment
" ...  while it has a spiffy look to it, the second hand keeps getting stuck, and has to be restarted by fidgeting with the buttons.  ...  "
comment
" ...  the button was not pulled out far enough.  ...  "
comment
" ...  This could be an error on my part but I think it's due to bending my wrist and I push one of the buttons too far in by accident.  ...  "
comment
" ...  Second, the way the 1/20th second dial works is weird, inefficient, and non-intuitive. ... Pressing the indiglo button + reset button could move the minute subdial to display the hour in a second time zone (in military time, so it would only use a portion of the subdial up to 24). ... It's just the software on the digital quartz module they have to change.  ...  "
