Hi all,

my Colt II has gained 8 seconds in 10 days is this a problem? I set it according to the time on the Breitling web site so is it possible that the site's clock has changed or is that crazy? The watch is still less than 2 years old so Breitling should sort this out for me shouldn't they?

thanks,

Chris

8 seconds in 10 days is well within COSC specifications. In fact that's really great timekeeping for an automatic! (If you want super-accuracy you'll be better off with a Superquartz Breitling than an auto)

thanks for the quick reply Driver8 but actually I do have the SuperQuartz Colt II so I'm guessing it is a problem?

Oh.... oops, sorry I didn't read what you had!!! :oops: Yeah, in that case, 8 seconds in 10 days IS pretty bad!! It shouldn't gain 8 seconds in a YEAR!!! Nip it down to your AD pronto!
