Brought a new Blackbird today and the Chronograph is not working. Has this happened to anyone else?

I made sure to loosen the pusher locks and the hand is stuck at the 12. Nothing happens when the pusher is pressed.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

This may be a dumb question but are you pushing the right pusher (the top one) and are you pushing it hard enough? Not saying you're dumb or anything, but I've heard weirder stuff. I know on mine it's pretty tight. I hope everything works out for you.

Yeah it's not exactly a delicate push either. Make sure the pusher screw is fully loosened, then give it a try. You will feel and hear a click when it is activated.

Thanks for the input. I will try pushing it harder. The watch was purchased from FEAR and he is helping me with it. I might ot be pushing it hard enough.

BTW, FEAR is a great resource. The man knows Breitlings!

Great news, it is a bitch the first time you use it, huh?

I had the same trouble putting a BM into reverse the first time (thought I'd break the stick)
