| Post subject: | B50 not charging (new) Urgent :( |
Hello, I have just purchased a new cockpit B50, and I am trying to charge it. I connect the charger, the light and beep comes up, the word "charge" is there but the watch is not charging... it even discharged when i unplugged. How is this possible on a new watch that cost almost 7000 euros. Can somebody help me what is going on with the watch? thanks, Tiago |

Just do a search, common issue that will require Breitling attention. |

Take it back to the AD you purchased it from. If it's not charging and there is no prospect of it doing so, then I would return it. Save any suggestions from other owners. If you have done as the instructions state then it's something probably only Breitling can solve. Best of luck. |

Agee with the above. A friend of mine had the same issue and was given a replacement by his AD. The sales guy appeared not in the least surprised. A fabulous piece but not one that delivers. |

Sorry to hear that. It seems like this watch has been very disappointing. Good luck with the fix. |

Breitling is shooting their brand in the foot by allowing any of these defects to be purchased. Really unimpressive. Get your money back. |

I've said it before, but it's such a shame these issues are continuing with this piece. The in-house quartz movement (if indeed it actually IS fully in house) should've been a landmark event for a company like Breitling who have really embraced quartz in their professional line, but issues like this really tarnish things. And it's a double shame as I think it's a gorgeous looking watch too. |

I have a b50 night mission, and I have not had a single issue. No issues with any function, I accidentally let mine go completely dead, charged it to 100% and still no issues. It appears I have the only good one. It's really a shame that this has happened. I believe that Breitling is not releasing anymore of them, my local dealer was trying to get one for 8 months for me until I found it somewhere else. |

Sorry to hear man. This is a common issue with this watch. I know of 3 B50's with this issue. Ask your AD to replace. Ling ling |
