In all the 5 i had never had any kind of issues regarding precision or handle care, when i requested a dial change in one of the times, the shipping to breitling factory and back was free of charge, i just drop it at my local AD. I believe you had bad luck in that watch

Also, this is the first time I've heard of the whole "personal wearing habits" thing regarding staying within COSC specs. Sounds like a load of BS to me. Has anybody else heard of that?

crap thats bad, i think everyone is correct over here, take it with the AD, fire the shit out of him, you should have asked your AD for a refund, just curious have you dropped the watch? all the best.. |

Has anybody else heard of that? Accuracy does depend on wearing habits indirectly - position, temperature, average amount of power reserve, etc; but the differences from one user to another are not likely to have a noticeable difference - a watch that runs 4 seconds fast a day when you wear it may be 3 1/2 or 4 1/2 when I wear it, but not -2 or + 10. |

Purportedly for the 10 minutes a day that I'm in the shower, and the 3 hours a week I'm at the gym??? I don't think so. Govberg fought for me all of ZERO! If that's true then that's a terrible job by George. I'd be furious as well. |

While it seems he has a good reputation on this site, this is somewhat troubling as I looked at his dealer corner all the time. This is something to keep in mind. Sorry to the OP I wish you could get it all worked out, sometimes you get a real bad taste in your mouth and thats all it takes to turn you off. |

I do have the email exchange with George Mayer/Govberg but it probably isn't worth posting it. If Govberg wants to help me after seeing this forum topic, I would welcome it. My original email to George contained the full dialogue I had already had with BUSA, and I also asked George if Govberg worked with anyone at Breitling that they could escalate to. He didn't answer that question. Just suggested the auto-winder. |

Sound like you might be happier with a super quartz. |
