Syncing My Subdial

For those of us who like to sync their chrono hand with their seconds subdial, what is your method of madness?

I like to 0:00 mine on closing time 18:10:00. I realize if I pull the crown out to set the time, then press the Start plunger, they will both begin at the same time when I restart the watch.

My real question is, how do you guys make sure the seconds and the chrono are synced? I end up just playing red-light green-light until they look close enough to scratch the OCD.

Thanks in Advance!

I don't see the point of this so why do you want to sync it with the second hand?

Some people like to leave the chrono running. I like to leave the chrono running as a secondary seconds hand...Hence the OCD. No more, no less.

I usually sync my Platona. I just watch the small seconds hand and start the Chrono hand when the small seconds hand reaches zero. As far as being perfect, I don't worry about that mainly because at a glance, I cannot see the small seconds anyway.

Small worries. Great watch. Never heard of an easy way to synch them.
