BATTERY END-OF-LIFE INDICATOR (EOL)
The watch movement is fitted with a battery end-of-life detector (EOL), signalled by the
small seconds hand beginning to jump every 4 seconds.
The battery must be replaced within the next few days by an authorized BREITLING agent.
Also ask for a water-resistance test to be performed on the watch.
RECOMMENDATIONS
Used batteries and used watch components should not be dis-
posed of like regular garbage, but be correctly recycled. We rec-
ommend returning them to your point of sale. You will thereby
contribute to environmental and public health protection.

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
or your authorized retailer will be happy to handle the procedure.
WATER RESISTANCE
The movement of your chronometer is protected by a complex case fitted with gaskets to
ensure its water resistance. Under the influence 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).
