Hi all, I recently purchased a used Breitling B1 2003 model. When I treid to set the digital and analog time so that they match up I had a few problems as they wound not sync, the digital is a few hours off the analog. If any one has any ideas of what causes this problem or how to fix it please help me out. I own a chronospace and it has no issues with syncing :shock:

The old Chronospace had a different movement (the new one introduced in 2010 uses the same one, or at least the SQ version) so not necessarily the same.

You need to spin the crown until the digital display is blank and then pull the crown and adjust the hands to the time that the digital display showed before you blanked it. Then just push in the crown and it should be synched.

When I spin the crown until the display is blank to set the time. I then pull out the crown and the digital display displays the time like it should, but when I spin the crown to change the time. Let's say that I set the anolog hands to 1200hrs the digital display dispays 1510hrs. The watch does what is is supposed to, but the two times do not correspond. Thanks. Any thoughts??

I think that you are going to need someone with that movement who has seen that before, sorry I'm out.
