Hi Guys

I have just acquired a 2008 BB and set it this morning 10:00am UK time it has gained 10 mins before 1:00pm

Does this just need regulating the dealer who sold it to me had said it has just had a service (in house guys not Breitling).

I think it will need to be sent back but sad as only just arrived today and its off again.

Do you think this could settle down?

Thanks in advance

Dollars to doughnuts it's magnetised. Take it in to an AD and have them demagnetise it (takes about 3 seconds) and then put it on their timing machine.

10 minutes in 3 hours will not be fixed by regulation, if it's not magentised then there's a bigger issue.

Any AD with a watchmaker, most will have a demagentiser but you want to get the watch timed afterwards and there likely won't be a timing machine unless they have a watchmaker.

No idea on whether they will charge you.
