So the dealer called me this afternoon. I wasn't available to pick up so they left a message saying they sent the waych back to Breitling. He said he mentioned to them that I would like a new piece. What I am concerned about is if they wrote down accurately what the issues are. Now I'll have to call Breitling directly to make sure they understand the issues.

Hi Watch nut thanks for responding. I really feel like the quality of the watch is not there. It doesn't feel like a solid watch in my opinion. Maybe it's because of the loud noise inside the particular watch I was sold that is messing with my head. I could buy two Super Avengers for the price of one Unitime! Well they are very different watches, but nevertheless it seems a little over priced for the Unitime in retrospect.

I never heard back from the AD on Friday which doesn't surprise me. I'll wait and see what happens next week, although I doubt Breitling will just send a new watch out, very rare that would happen in my opinion. They may look at it and decide to open it up, or they may say it is fine and within tolerances. If that is the case I will be supremely pissed off LOL.

OK thanks again for all the contribution will post back when received news!

I don't know man, it's hard to understand without seeing/hearing the watch

My navi world is loud, I'vs read the 7750 movement is typically loud. To be honest I don't care, it keeps great time. I think it sounds great spinning round.

Is yours supposed to be silent?

It's a shame you can't enjoy your purchase yet. Try be patient and let the ad do what they need to do.

Good luck getting sorted. :)

Hey guys, just got back from the AD. Breitling is sending out a brand new Unitime for me. I walked in the AD expecting to hear that Breitling was going to service the old watch. But instead they are replacing it. I was prepared to argue and tell him I didn't want the repaired watch, but headed me off before I could even get a word out and told me they are sending a brand new watch. Pretty good of Breitling to do that, I guess something must have really been wrong with it or the AD called in a favor and asked for a totally new watch to be sent back.

BTW I forgot to mention, the AD said he wouldn't return or exchange the Unitime because it was special order, but at least I am getting a brand new one direct from Breitling!
