Hi Guys -
Great forum here, lots of good information.
I purchased a 'display model' Breitling Blackbird a few weeks ago from a grey market dealer and noticed pretty quickly that the second hand doesnt seem to sweep correctly. I ignored it hoping it just needed to work in, but now its been a few weeks....So i've done some research on skipping second hands and it seems that it could be a plethora of things. Attached is a video to what i believe is a skip in the second hand

1. I purchased through a greymarket dealer (chronostore), it came with a 3 year warranty through them, but i'm not too keen on having them repair, should i suck it up and send to breitling? what do you think cost is there?
2. Should i just 'deal' with it, watch seems to be keeping good time. The second hand is off by around -6 a day (i know, not within COSC standard); but the hour/minute hasnt had any noticeable difference.
3. Any other advice? could this just be a lubrication issue?
Thanks all,
Naz
