Last night I looked down at my wrist and found my crown was popped out.. I pulled the watch of my wrist and tryed to screw it back into place, only to find the crown in my hand.. It must have worked its way loose when on my wrist some how and actually fell of the watch!!


Has anybody ever heard of this issue before?


What will Breitling do for me? It is around 2 months old (Brand new from AD) with a 2 year warrenty.

Yes I've heard of it happening occasionally before.

The good news is that if it's only 2 months old and bought from an AD as you say, then Breitling will fix it free of charge under warranty. Either contact Breitling direct (BUK, BUSA, where-ever you are based), or you can go via an AD.

Does that Breitling model has a screw down crown (like a SOH 46mm)?

Yes, the Chronomat has a screw down crown.
