Sorry if posted before but news to me.

Breitling have put the user manuals on-line.

http://www.breitling.com/user-manuals/en

Not pdf files but interactive pages - great to see the slide rule functions explained.

Now that is damn handy. PDF Files as well.

If any post deserves a vote to become a 'sticky', surely it's this?

Excellent, well spotted.

Be esp good if they extend that beyond the current model range.

That's good news - never did understand why they hadn't done that before.

If they had done it before, what would they be doing now? :wink:

Seems like their website is having issues and the PDF manuals aren't up anymore from errors. I used use it online on my computer so I wouldn't have to find my manual...I never downloaded it.

Any ideas where they are also available until Breitling fits their page? :)

I only see HTML errors on my side, at least on the Datora link. Strange.

I'll have to try on Firefox when I get home. Strange.

Thanks!

The web pages aren't working properly, but the pdf download for the Navitimer World worked for me.

Yea, Datora's PDF is definitely fubar regardless the browser. I only reset the time,etc on my watch 2x/year and I always forget. The PDF was quicker rather finding my manual in my closet. :)

It's good to see the manuals online - but it's embarassing that they are not able to set it up properly... Hope they fix it soon.
