The Breitling Watch Source Forums

I haven't worn this watch in a while, so i don't know if it was always like this. Anyway i was staring at my watch during a bit of downtime at the office, when i noticed the date crest was not centered. It was a a time bit ahead and the left point almost barely touched the number. It was about 6:30 p.m at the time, so i thought maybe it was the time. I just looked at it about an hour ago, and it was equally off center . So i manually moved it through every day of the month. it is equally off center on every day, and every month. There is no change in its position day to day/ month to month.

It doesn't really bother me, since i know sometimes date wheels are not always on center. After some thought though, it kinda bothers me, because its not a date wheel. Its a hand. and it grabs most of your attention when you look at the watch.

Do you guys think something is wrong or is this ok?

It's been reported by other people as well - viewtopic.php?f=1&t=20773

I don't think that it's a 'problem' with the movement per se, rather that it hasn't been adjusted very well / hand has not been properly aligned. It's certainly something that Breitling should address, but if the watch is no longer under warranty you might want to wait until a service is due.

thanks roff.

mine looks perfect on the single digits but a little off on the double digits.

I have a similar question relating to the month. As you can see below, it's the 4th and the "APR" hasn't properly clicked into position. The watch is only new, so I don't know whether this is normal or an issue.

That's definitely not normal........................
