Hi guys, bought my SA on 20th jun and now it has been about 2 mths. Noticed the SA is running 2mins faster so far. I guess 2 mths is enough time to break in. Would like to ask is this normal? Really unhappy over this issue and didn't have it with my previous watches (not breitling) Should I send it for service? I think it's absurd that a new watch should go to service centre for a long downtime. I also worry they will cause more scratches and create more problems later. |

Running fast is usually a sign that the watch needs a service. What is the provenance of the watch? Is it new from dealer or second hand purchase? how old is the watch?? |

2 minutes total in 2 months or 2 minutes fast a day? If the former that's pretty good as it's running about 2 seconds fast a day if the latter it needs attention. Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk 2 |

I read it as 2 minutes in 2 months which is about as close to perfect as you can get with a new watch that is still settling. If it's 2 minutes a day then you have an issue, if it's 2 minutes in total then there is absolutely nothing wrong. |

Have it demagnitized at your local watchmaker or AD with inhouse watchmaker. 99% sure this 10 second job will fix your problem !! |

But it sounds like it is +2 minutes in 2 months total - and that is including settling of a new watch. If it's magnetised then I would keep it that way because that's pretty darn perfect!! |

I collected my watch today and no travel case, just stuffed the watch in some plastic. Best of all I found out today that the AD wrote the wrong serial number of my watch on the warranty card when I collected back my watch and warranty card from the service centre!!! Really speechless how such a thing can happen |

5secs fast in any 24 hours then it stays at that.......bought last day of 2009 never been off for longer than a couple of hours at most...not stored in a cocoon, a piece thats used .....still in pristine condition,all i ever hoped for in a Breitling watch...... Model A13370. (563) blue with white........ worth the 50 years wait to buy it......
