The Breitling Watch Source Forums

Hi all,

I am concerned with the extremely short power reserve time on my watch. I read that it has about a 40 hr. power reserve, however, I seem to be getting only 10-12 hrs max. This cannot be normal.

I usually only wear my watch on the weekends and keep it in the winder during the week if that makes any difference. Any help would be appreciated.

First, wound the watch manually (40 turns).
Set the winder on 850 or 1000 turns (it's more than it requires, but in this case it's necessary because you are probably not very active during the weekend and your power reserve is not high enough).
Also, set the winder on both directions.
