Hey all, first-time Breitling owner. Just got my B01 a little while back!

It may seem like a silly question, but I was wondering if any of you guys have special methods/tools for cleaning your Breitling. I just use a Microfiber cloth, but all Breitlings are special watches and I figured that someone out there performed special cleaning deserving of a Ling.

Also, I have a very fine scratch on the bezel of my B01. Has anyone gonna through the repair process/worked with Breitling on a repair (if it is possible)?

Thanks guys, have a great day.

Firstly, welcome aboard.

If you do a search on "Cape Cod" on this forum you'll find loads threads on Cape Cod polishing cloths which a huge number of us on here (including me) would highly recommend.

As I was reading this post I noticed you said the scratch was on the bezel. Just be carefull you don't scratch the ar coating on the crystal. Maybe you could cover it with something before attempting to polish out the scratch. Just passing on some advice that some one passed on to me. good luck :D
