Two week old Aerospace. I noticed last night that the minute repeater and alarm make no sound. Took the watch off, and left it overnight. This morning it works, I get sound. Put the watch on, wore it on my drive into work, test again, no sound. Took the watch off, waited 15 minutes, test and I get sound. Put it back on, waited 5 minutes, no sound from minute repeater.

I'm sitting at a desk in a 76F office, so it's not 100F+ in my environment.

The only thing I can surmise is that it's got an issue with temperature after being on my wrist for a few minutes?

Any thoughts to try before it goes back to the AD?

Thanks

That's weird.

Not an expert on the quartz movements, but I can't think why that would happen - temperature shouldn't impact it at all.

Definitely needs some Breitling attention.

Thanks, I was afraid of that. Oh well, guess I'll go back to my trusty Rolex while it's in the shop. 25 years of faithful service with only a single cleaning about 10 years ago.
