Hello! First breitling... Super ocean chrono The a13 . First, I took watch to Swiss watch Center to have them check it before I purchased Watch. He opened it up and said everything Looks ok. My problem is staying wound. Works Great if I wind it but not on winder. I adjusted Winder angle and rotation, ( 1000 cw ) Its not staying wound on winder. Its an 05... So " im gonna have to choke up 600 for an overhaul? " ; ((( Sad in florida! Lol |

Also nother side note... If it winds clockwise Shouldnt the winder be counter clockwise? I experimented w a ratchet and pretending Ratchet is watch and handle is rotor it should Be ccw? Right?? |

All threads split from the irrelevant ones that they were posted in and merged into the same thread in the right section. Welcome to BreitlingSource. The setting of the winder should be the same as the watch needs - clockwise winding means the winder should be set for clockwise winding, otherwise nothing will happen. You also have to make sure that the watch sits vertically in the winder or it won't wind. If it still doesn't wind then you may have a problem with the automatic winding, but I would try those first. |

Thank you for help... Am very new. My first watch was a rolex gmt master.. Back n the Navy circa 80's. Never heard of breitling then. Had that watch Through 2 wives a plethora of girl friends And jobs... It never let me down, It had One overhaul.. In twenty plus years and I sold it for more than I paid and still got Robbed! Ha ha! So my first Breitling and I was just hoping I could make it a year to overhaul... Though The poor watch has been waiting on one for Awhile! Anyone have any advice ... Also my first Auto chrono.. |

If it's overdue for a service which is what you imply, and it is showing symptoms of needing a service, then it needs servicing! |
