Just adjusted my replica back from daylight savings time and as i did it the hour hand stopped moving, now i have about a 3 minute error on the hour hand as it wont line up when the minute hand is on 12. I worked out how to set the second hand(by usng the stopwatch buttons) but how do i set the hour hand to read right??

No offense intended, but we gather here to celebrate and support our AUTHENTIC Breitlings not replicas. If your replica died, go buy another one for $50 or save up (like many of us had to) and buy the real thing. Then you wont have to worry about the minute and hour hands not working right.

There are forums out there discussing avid ownership of replicas, this isnt one of them.

only thing i can add is this...

Replica are for people who try an impress...try to be someone they are not...and over all the feeling (not to mention the craftsmenship) that you get from owning a genuine piece is pricless...

My advice.. is get a proper piece, if you cnat afford it, save and get it...!!

Wow, what a bunch of up them selves you lot are!!
"try to impress" "when you can afford", such statements from people i dont even know!
I guess i had better take my bat and ball and go somewhere else.

Oh, and for the record, I do own a "few" originals, i just like to collect replicas, i find it quite amazing how well some people make their copies!!

Fossil originals?

:lol:

Just kidding.

Seriously, there is no way to honestly tell you what is wrong with your watch. Without having authentic guts, it's a guessing game on the movement, and what is causing the issue without cracking the caseback.

Best of luck trying to find someone to fix it.

Its too hard to diagnose your problem with your replica since we have no idea what kind of watch it is.. we couldn't help you if we wanted to with your limited description. Chances are your Replica is broken and you should simply buy another... Same reason you wouldn't take a replica to a Breitling authorized AD and ask them for a service, this simply isn't the right forum to ask for help with your replicas.
