I did end up sending it in for service, but not fully because of the issue I was having with the dial not sitting right at 12 o'clock - but because the battery was draining and the pushers sometimes got "stuck".

Within a day or two it stopped working completely, and the bezel in the back wouldn't move.

Breitling replaced the pushers (and I'm sure did some other tinkering during the service) and
everything was back to normal. They did it quite fast too (~3 weeks) as I needed it for an upcoming trip.

Only issue I have been having is the pins/screws that hold the bracelet to the watch itself come undone. I've never had this happen with any watch. They simply unscrew themselves to the point
where the watch has come flying off my wrist

I've brought it back to my jeweler, and they couldnt come up with a solution.
They asked if perhaps I rode motorcycles and the vibrations were doing that, etc... but no.
They screwed it back in tightly and put "locktight" on it...

but it still happens.

Rather annoying to have to tighten them on a weekly basis...
but even worse when it has fallen to the ground! Don't want it
to happen again.

Is this a common issue?
Where should I begin to fix it - request that the pins be replaced
or send it in for service to look at? I don't have any other "nice"
watches and dread being without it for several weeks

fyi i wear it everyday

p.s. SHOULD I JUST START A DIFFERENT THREAD?

Not much point in a new thread now. Screws should be held in place by loctite - easy fix.

I have deleted your duplicate thread, please don't double post.

No problem, wasn't sure if people would see my post here.

if loctite isn't holding it, what should I do?

Take it to the AD to get it addressed.

This is my next piece as well, only with the black dial. Retail is just north of 15, so it's an expensive piece to begin with. I wouldn't expect to save any set amount, but you will get a discount either way. Good luck.

Matt,

it's a beautiful watch in the black dial as well.

I get compliments on mine on almost a daily basis!

Mine is due to arrive next week, I can't wait! Could you post a couple wrist shots to hold me off?
