I recently purchased Superocean heritage chronographe 44 U2337012-BB81BKOR. The watch is stunning, but there is one problem that I am not able to change the date using the quick date change feature. Although the date changes when I rotate the hour hand for 24 hours or If I take it past 12 to around 2 am then bring it back to 7-8pm & again take it to 2 am.
I don't know if the quick date change feature works on this one. Please reply If someone knows about this one.

Quick change date isn't working because it doesn't have one :-)

Breitling caliber 23 doesn't have that feature.

Thanks for the information. I hope you are sure. I got confused as the manual suggests otherwise.
Since the manual is common I guess for superocean heritage chronograph 46 so may be thats the reason for this confusion.

SOH 44 uses cal 23 movement, SOH 46 uses cal 13 movement.
Cal 13 supports quick date set function, 23 does not as Roff pointed out.
Changing the date as you described is the only way to do it on the SOH 44.
Not sure but my guess is that the AD gave you the wrong manual.
I'd be checking with Breitling directly if there is a dedicated manual for the cal 23 powered SOH 44.

I already had checked this before. If you check then you will find that there is no option for Superocean heritage chronographe 44. Moreover, they are all the same & every model in the category superocean heritage has the same description which mentions date setting as an option. As I wrote earlier may be they just have a common instruction manual for the entire superocean heriatge series & nothing in particular for Superocean heritage chronographe 44
