| Post subject: | Colt Chrono – Bottom button not working |
Hi Bottom button on my 2006 colt chrono with B73 movement has stopped working – there is no resistance when I press it and the chronograph will not stop. This problem has occurred intermittently in the past, however it always fixed itself after a few hours of the chronograph running. Has anyone ever experienced this problem or knows anything about it? Your advice will be much appreciated. |

The bottom button shouldn't work if the chronograph is running. You need to stop the chronograph with the top button, and then press the bottom one. |

The bottom button on this particular model is used to pause the chronograph, without interrupting time count, or, if pressed after the top button is pressed, to reset the chrongraph. |

If it's not working, take it to a watchmaker. Oftentimes things like this are an easy and inexpensive fix. |

Sorry, missed that it was quartz. That's likely not a mechanical issue, probably a problem on the circuit board, so definitely needs Breitling service attention - especially if it's recurring. |

It feels like a mechanical fault - the button feel changes. I wander if anyone has had the same problem. |

It's possible that the pusher is not engaging properly, but regardless of cause it's going g to need service attention. |
