I recently purchased a Breitling Avenger 2 Seawolf and I love it, but already have some problems with:

1. The bezel move both directions (because of me, I accidentally pressed the bezel to my desk) :cry:
2. My watch lose about a 10 seconds / day..The clock is manufactured in 2016, I bought it from November 2017 and it was in its box until last week when I started to use it. I've wind it properly, but it's still losing the 10 seconds ...
:?: Based to your experience, do you think I still have to worn it for about 3 weeks, in order to "settle in" or send it to AD to regulate..

Many thanks

It shows that that if you wear the watch it becomes more accurate if it was in the box for long. Keep on wearing it for a few weeks and it should go even below that 10sec/day.

Bezel has a click Spring. Sounds as though you’ve either broken the little tab on it , or bent it back. I would think you’d be able to get that fixed without sending to Breitling. An AD may be able to source that for you. I bought a new complete bezel & springs set up for my SO Chrono II on eBay a couple years back.
I’ve re-bent the tab before on a couple of my watches when the tab wears from use, to make the action more positive. Good luck.

Try and put her on a watch winder when not wearing her... keeps the mechanism running, avoids oils getting stuck where they shouldn't, etc.
Always helps!
