PREPARING THE WATCH FOR USE
WINDING – TIME-SETTING
1. Wind the watch by rotating the crown around 40 times in
a clockwise direction.
2. Pull the crown out to position 2 and move the hands for-
wards and backwards between 8 pm and midnight so as
to set the calendar to the last day before the correct day
(in progress/current).
3. Turn the hands until the appearance of the exact date, which
jumps at midnight. Then adjust the hours and minutes.
4. Push the crown back to position 1.

YOUR BREITLING CHRONOMETER
A chronometer is a high-precision instrument that has successfully passed the
entire battery of tests imposed by the COSC (Swiss Official Chronometer
Testing Institute), a neutral and independent body which individually tests
each movement according to the prescriptions in force.
The certification test for wristwatches with sprung balance oscillators,
according to the ISO 3159 norm, consists of observing each movement for
15 days and 15 nights, in 5 positions and at 3 different temperatures (8°, 23°C,
38°C). In order to earn the prestigious chronometer label, a movement’s
performances must meet 7 very strict criteria, including a daily variation in
rate ranging between only –4/+6 seconds.
The term “chronometer” should not be confused with that of “chronograph”,
which is a complicated watch fitted with an additional mechanism enabling
the measurement of the duration of an event. A chronograph is not neces-
sarily chronometer-certified, but all BREITLING chronographs carry the much-
coveted title of “chronometers”.

II. MEASURING AN INTERRUPTED SHORT TIME
1. Press pushpiece Ato start the chronograph. Hand 2
allows you to follow the measurement in seconds.
2. To interrupt the measurement, press pushpiece A
once more. To restart the time measurement, press
pushpiece A. This procedure makes it possible to
add several short times.
3. The chronograph is reset to zero by pressing push-
piece B, once the final measurement has been stopped.

USING THE CHRONOGRAPH
I. MEASURING A SINGLE SHORT TIME
1. Press pushpiece Ato start the chronograph. Hand 3
shows the measurement in seconds.
2. Stop the measurement by pressing pushpiece A once
more. The measurement is done in hours (totalizer 1),
minutes (totalizer 2), seconds and 1
/
4of a second
(hand 3).
3. Return the chronograph to zero by pressing push-
piece B.

1/100th OF AN HOUR DIAL DISPLAY
Your BREITLING chronometer is equipped with a scale dividing the hour into
hundredths, thus making it easier to read off the minutes on a decimal base.
E.g.: 0.6h = 36minutes.

SPECIAL CHARACTERISTICS
SUN COMPASS
Your BREITLING chronometer may be used as a sun compass, thus enabling
you to determine the Northerly-Southerly direction. For regions that have
instated daylight saving time, subtract one hour when directing the watch.
In the Northern hemisphere
Point the hour hand precisely towards the sun. In relation
to the watch dial, the point located midway between
the current time and 12 o’clock indicates the South, the
North being exactly opposite.
In the Southern hemisphere
Point the hour-marker located at 12 o’clock on the dial
precisely towards the sun. In relation to the watch dial,
the point located midway between the current time and
12 o’clock indicates the North, the South being exactly
opposite.

MAINTENANCE
Your BREITLING chronometer is a sophisticated instrument which is con-
stantly subjected to a wide variety of stresses and strains. Within a very
small volume, a large number of components contribute to handling all the
functions. Their mechanical action inevitably leads to a certain amount of
wear and tear, which may be controlled by maintenance consisting of renew-
ing the lubrication and replacing worn components. Like any precision
measurement instrument, your watch must be regularly maintained in
order to function at its highest level of potential: we recommend a regular
service every two years, while the complete overhaul should be scheduled
about every five years. Your authorized BREITLING dealer will be pleased to
handle this for you.
WATER-RESISTANCE
The movement of your chronometer is protected by a sophisticated case fitted
with water-resistance gaskets. Under the influence of certain external factors
such as perspiration, cosmetics, perfumes or dust, these gaskets progressively
deteriorate and must be periodically replaced, ideally every two years.
Moreover, we recommend an annual water-resistance test, which takes only
a few minutes, performed by your authorized BREITLING agent.
CONVERSION SCALE FOR WEIGHTS AND MEASURES
USED IN AVIATION
The scale engraved on the back of your watch allows you to convert five of
the weight and measurement units most commonly used in aviation.
Combined with the slide rule, it is a handy way of preparing a flight plan.
Example: multiply the number of UK gallons by 1.20 to determine the
equivalent value in US gallons, or by 3.65 to obtain the mass or weight in
kg of such a volume.
Important note: liquid to weight measurement conversions (Lb., Kg) relate
to Jet fuel (kerosene).
xGal. UK US Gal. Liter Lb.* Kg*
Gal. UK 1 1.20 4.54 8.05 3.65
US Gal. 1/1.20 1 3.78 6.70 3.04
Liter 1/4.54 1/3.78 1 1.77 0.80

WHAT TO AVOID
Like any valuable objects, BREITLING chronometers deserve special care. It
is important to protect them from jarring and knocks by hard objects, and
not to expose them to chemical products, solvents, dangerous gases, or
magnetic fields. Moreover, your BREITLING chronometer is designed to run
smoothly at temperatures ranging between 0°C and 50°C.
The complex construction of the case used for NAVITIMER models, featuring
a design faithful to the vintage 1950s models, means they are not suited to
aquatic activities. The crown, pushpieces and bezel must under no circum-
stances be activated when the watch is damp. The water-resistance indica-
tion, expressed in bars, must be considered a safety factor, protecting your
chronometer from dust and splashing. Only watches that are water-resis-
tant to 5 or more bars should be subjected to repeated immersions.
USEFUL TIPS
BREITLING genuine leather straps are crafted with the most refined materi-
als and represent extremely high-quality products. Like all objects in natu-
ral skin (shoes, gloves, etc.), their length of life varies considerably, accord-
ing to the conditions in which they are worn. In particular, water, cosmet-
ics and perspiration accelerate the aging process.
BREITLING metal cases and bracelets are crafted from the finest alloys and
ensure sturdiness and wearer comfort. Regular cleaning with a soft damp
brush will keep your watch shiny. For watches fitted with a leather strap,
proceed in the same manner, taking care to avoid wetting the strap.
