The Breitling Watch Source Forums

I bougth a used really nice looking blue dial ariwolf in good condition. After polishing it looked new and i love it. BUT......... there s a f****** annoying issue. The crown turns itself when i wear the watch. This happens when i twist my arm and the crown touches my hand. So often there are different things shown in the display. I always want it to show day and date.

Is there any way to disable the crown rotating function? If i send the watch to service can they update software or something to make this issue go away? Ive seen on forums that there are more people experiencing this problem. I have sent a mail to breitling regarding this but they have so far not answered.


If not how the HELL can a 4000$ watch have a bad design lika this.

Pls give me advice
thx

I believe Breitling can adjust the sensitivity of the crown so that it requires more turns to change the function. Try calling them instead of email for a more instant response.

PS - I've edited a word in your original post in the interest of "family-friendliness". Thanks.

My B1 has a 'ghost in the machine'. Functions change on occasions by themselves (even if it sits on the desk).

I have sent it back to BUK twice now, no change and no error reported.

It has a certain charm though.

I never had this problem after owning an Airwolf for over a year.
I don't wear my watches too close to my hand as some do, mine probably sit about an inch from my hand.

I could wear it on my right hand and that would probably solve the problem but thats not the way to go for me
