SPECIAL CHARACTERISTICS
SUN COMPASS
Your Breitling chronometer may be used as a sun compass, thus enabling you to determine
North and South. For regions that have instated daylight saving time, subtract one hour
when aligning 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 South, 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 North,
South being exactly opposite.

MAINTENANCE

Your Breitling chronometer is a sophisticated instrument which is constantly 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 con-
sisting of relubrication 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: the frequency of this operation varies according to actual use. Breitling
S
or your authorized retailer will be happy to handle the procedure.
WATER RESISTANCE
The movement of your chronometer is protected by a complex case fi tted with gaskets to
ensure its water resistance. Under the infl uence of various external agents - perspiration,
chlorinated or salt water, cosmetics, fragrances or dust - these gaskets gradually deterio-
rate. That is why water resistance cannot be permanently guaranteed. If used intensively
in water, we recommend having an annual water resistance check conducted. In any
event, such an appraisal must be done every two years. This operation, which takes only
a few minutes, may be conducted by a Breitling authorized maintenance centre, or by an
authorized retailer (www.breitling.com).
