Hello all, I can't get my alarm to sound on my b1 and have not been able to since I bought the watch. Any body has any idea on easily testing out the alarm? Is it possible the alarm function is broken? Thanks in advance.

See page 41 of your B-1 manual. Rotate the crown to select TON\L function. Depress lower pusher until "P" appears in lower display. Then, see page 31 of your B-1 manual. Rotate the crown until one of the two alarm functions is shown in the displays then press and hold in the bottom pusher. That is the test for the audible alarm. The two functions if working correctly have different sound. If either one or both are silent, your assumption of a broken alarm function is likely correct.

You'll note that the four TON\L selections are (none), "P", "P-H" and "P-C". If you only want the alarm sound, selecting "P" does the trick. The other selections determine hourly "blips" and/or pusher depression confirmations.

If you don't have a manual, here is one for you online... http://www.9x19mm.com/b1.pdf

Hope this helps.
Best,
Ron

Thanks for the replies, I do have the manual and tried. Not even the hourly beep works. I guess alarm is completely shut!

I wonder how much would be to get Breitling to fix it. I was reading and is not too uncommon apparently.
