The Breitling Watch Source Forums

Hope you can advise, my titanium seawolf avenger is four months old, when I don't wear it for even half a day it stops.
Is it not ment to hold reserve for 42 hours?
I believe you need to wind it, if so in what position, which way and how many times?
The booklet gives no advice on this.

Thanks

The manual should definitely have the winding information in it.

But all you need to do is unscrew the crown, and when it is free of the thread, wind it in a clockwise direction (you will feel a slight resistance and hear a slight noise compared to if you went anti-clockwise) for a minimum of 40 turns. Dont worry if you go over that as you can't overwind an automatic. And that's it!

The reason your watch may currently be stopping maybe because it wasn't fully wound before. Wearing it daily will maintain the charge, but all autos need a full wind from new. If you still have the problem after fully winding it you may need to take it into an AD.
