Breitling watch winder rotations requirments

Hello Damon Hiley

Beautiful Winder... (BUT RELAX)

It does not NEED to move constantly...
only enough the change position to allow the
self wind weight. to move a little... GENTLY.

Just like the normal movement of a PILOT...
HOLDING the controls steady...
(NOT cheerleaders)

Working as it should.

You really should send it to Breitling via an authorized dealer. Breitling will be able to ensure the repair meets their standards including waterproofness.

Flashing means low battery. Time to replace it.

Your watch is an automatic (self winding) watch which can be started by swinging it gently from side to side for some minutes to wind the spring up.

For details see their web site by inserting the following link into your search engine http://www.breitling.com/en/index.php#/models/navitimer/navitimer-world/.

Self winders rely on being used to keep them wound and operate best if used every day.

Their web site does not give any user manuals but most watches change the date by pulling out the crown to position 2 (1 is the normal home position, 3 is fully out and 2 is inbetween the two) and rotate the crown to change date.

This quality of watch may require you to turn the crown wheel anticlockwise before pulling it out (extra seal).

If this does not work them go to http://www.breitling.com/en/index.php#/models/aeromarine/chrono-colt/ and using the menu on the left, locate their nearest service center and contact them. I fell sure that they will be only too happy to explain the procedure for changing the date.

35 hrs if you do not move it at all. If you wear it continuously you will never have to wind it again!

Every mechanical watch must be serviced within 2 - 7 years depending on what movement is is fitted.
Find your nearest watch repair shop and as for overhaul ( this is how we call full service of any watch).
Reasons for stopping can be numerous, but usually it is gummed oil, dust particles, and wear and tear.

Rate me, please.

you're not supposed to change the time at certain times if it is an automatic. I think any time after 8pm and before 4am (but check your manual). Apparently it messes up the mechanism. Maybe that's the issue?
