The Breitling Watch Source Forums

I'm a proud new owner of a Breitling Headwind I bought off somebody in the forums!

It is currently on its way to me, and should be with me in about 3 days. I paid for express shipping from USA to Asia.

Just wondering how many Headwind owners there are out there, its not a very common watch and considering the 5 year production run, I guess there aren't as many examples of the Headwind as there are Navitimers / Superoceans etc.


So... owners of Headwinds, please check in here with some photos of your watches and their special silver-engraved dials.

I'll start, this is from the seller who just shipped my watch this morning:

Here it is!

Just a quick question which I posted to the seller, when I pull out the crown of this watch, it feels a little loose/wonky.

Basically, when I hold the crown (unscrewed) i can practically move the dial (and the movement) very slightly. I can visually see the dial shaking/moving a little bit. Its nothing i consider very serious but I was wondering if this was normal with the Headwind model.

Other than that everything else works and functions 100%.

The date and day switch over (in a flash) at 11.56pm in an instant.


Would appreciate any comments on this
