I set the time and date yesterday and today and the watch does not move. I pressed the buttons to make the seconds hand move and nothing. I have never bumped the watch and have only had it less than a year and I bought it brand new! Some one help please!!!!

Welcome aboard.
Did you try to wind it manually?

It may simply be out of beat. Hold the watch facing you with the crown screwed in and rotate it through 360 degrees - i.e. turn the watch so htat the crown moves from 3 to 6, 9, 12, etc

If that doesn't work then there may be something more serious wrong with the watch. You say that you set time and date yesterday - was the watch running when you did that and has stopped as a result of you making the change? If so then it's possible that there is a problem with the crown stem and it's not allowing the watch to start running again - unscrew the crown and pull it out to the time setting position and then push it back in and screw it down again to see if that makes it work.

If not, then it likely needs a trip to Breitling.

I'm confused. If the crown is screwed in how can I rotate the hands from 3, 6 9 to 12?

Better still take it to the Breitling Boutique on 5th and 57th East, they have an in house repair centre and may be able to do it there.
