My Avenger Seawolf has been running perfectly....till a few days ago. It will run smoothly when resting the the moment I wear it - stops running. I have wound it, still happens. Ideas anyone? Needs service? :( :( :(

Certainly sounds like something isn't right. How old is the watch, and did it get knocked / dropped / similar recently?

Well.....I did drop it on a stone floor. No marks on the watch, not even on the Ti not even a scratch. It's only a couple of years old. My sense is to leave it resting, let it unwind. then rewind and wear it. If it stops again the moment I wear it, I have to send to Bling for service. Thanks for the reply!

Sounds like exactly the same problem I had with my Wings Auto a couple of months back. Ran perfectly til I put it on, then it stopped. A bit of a tap to the watch and it started running again, but could stop randomly throughout the day. Sent back to Breitling, who said it need an overhaul. Mine was 5 years old though.

That's the likely cause - may well have displaced / damaged the movement. It might sort itself out, but I suspect a trip to servicing is in order.
