I reciently recieved my breitling back from a service and i have noticed that i am now losing 8/10 seconds a day. Is this something that will improve over time or does it need to go back?.Any ideas?

I would give it a bit more time but if matters get worse I would then bring it back and have to adjusted. Remember once you get a overhaul by Breitling service you get 2 years warranty on things such as this. At least thats what it is here in Canada.

I guess the same applies for a serviced watch as for a new watch - give it a month to settle. If it's still that much off then, give them a visit and tell them your concerns.

:yeahthat At the end of the day (and looking at the service videos that Vanessa posted on here) your watch is completely dismantled and rebuilt during a service, so I'd have thought that all the criteria for a brand new watch would apply.

My SA was running about 10 sec/day fast and I took it to have it adjusted. It immediatly kept perfect time and has every since (about a month and a half). I don't think they need time to "settle in". Mine seemed to run fast from the time of purchase and as stated was and is perfect right after service.
