That's not what I'm asking, I need to know if the winder I'm gonna buy goes clockwise or counterclockwise to wind up the navitimer I've searched all threads and still dident find the one that explains how many turns does each watch need per day to stay wound.

Non-ADs do not have the Breitling factory warranty. Many do offer there own, and as long as serials are intact (and the watch is genuine of course) Breitling will still service it -- for a fee. Lately, however, many ADs have been competitive or beating the grey market sellers on price. Contact jnelson3067 for the contact info on the famous George, whom many of us have bought from -- I have bought 2 from George. Wonderful service, great guy, great price too. Good luck!!!!!! :lingsrock:
