Too many variables to give you a definitive answer. Depends on age and use of watch. Might just need a cleaning or maybe replacement of worn parts. Best to bring it to a reputable watchmaker and have it looked at. Don't attempt a DIY repair if you're not a watchmaker!

Only second hand operates. Rest of the watch won't move.

The seconds hand is purely a 60 second timer mate! It's the small crono dial at the top which is actually the real seconds hand! To get it going you need to unscrew your top adjusting wheel and push it once.....and it will start and the watch will hold time fine!
To stop the large seconds timer hand undo the bottom adjusting wheel and push it! Boom job done!
It caught me out aswell until a watch maker told me Rolex works the same and what you think is your seconds hand is just a timer the other hands won't follow hope this helps chaps

How do you reset the second hand so it sits at the 12 o clock position on an Ingersoll diamond automatic chronograph watch

I don't know if it's the same, but I just solved this problem on a Victorinox (Swiss Army) Chrono Classic XLS. The process involves:
1) Pulling the plunger out to position 3 2) Holding both buttons down for 2 seconds 3) When the hands stop moving press the top button. Each time it's pressed it will advance the second hand one tick. Keep tapping the top button until the second hand is in the 12 position. 4) Push the plunger in.

Heuer chronograph second hands will not reset to 12 after I reset chronograph . It's a quartz watch with mechanical chronograph movement. Any one know how to do this, I know there's a way but I don't know...

Pull out crown and then push the upper button and hold it. The chrono hand should start move and you should be able to adjust it. If this doesn't work, try the same with lower button. When adjusted - push the crown back in. In fact there are very many variations how to reset chrono hand, but exact advise can be given if the movement caliber of particular watch is known.
Rate me, plz.

Fix the hands correct with the dejital

Sometimes a watch will be off center due to shock, dead battery etc. Symptoms are;
hands don’t line up, digital and analog time doesn’t match, Compass function doesn’t
have the hands exactly opposite etc. This can all be fixed. The Synchronization
function can be used:
1. Activate Crystal
2. Tap center until you are the unit’s screen (12h or 24h, F ft or C m).
3. Push and hold (at least five seconds) the center crown
4. Watch will beep and word (SYNCHRO) will appear in the display.
5. Use the top + button to line up the minute hand right on the 12.
6. Use the bottom – button to line up the hour hand right on the 12.
7. When finished, press crown and you will go back to time.

Tag Heuer Link, stopwatch seconds hand stops 2 seconds before 12

Pull crown out to position 2 [in between unscrewed (1) and pulled all the way out (3)].  Tap Button B (bottom) to reset by step back to zero.
Incidentally, Button A works Hours register in same manner for position 2.  You can similarly reset second and 1/10th with Buttons A and B, respectively, while in position 3.  Cheers!
