Breitling Aerospace strange occurrance

[sjp63]

Had my Aero for about 7 years, this morning the hands were showing 0850 which I knew straight away was incorrect. The digital time was correct showing 0915. How can the two get separated like that!!!???

i;ve had that with mine -- it allows fully flexibility of decoupling digital watch time from hands. Cant remember how you reset it -- you need to go to "no display mode" I think and then set the time?

Could it have wound around the the second time zone?

no because time zones are one hour apart.......

its a mystery, but ive reset it now

This may be indicating a battery about to go; see if it happens again. Was the watch left in a cold place overnight? I can't remember what the low battery warning is - flashing digital display?

Its been fine since I first posted this but yesterday it went pear shaped again..

hands about 20 mins behind digital
Date Mon 0 Nov instead of 12th
Digital time 12 hours out eg 2.30 am instead of 1430 pm.

all this and it was fine an hour earlier!

Set it back to were it should be last night.....

At 0845 digital this morning the hands said 0830 and I was late for the school run..
Off to the menders tomorrow - seems more than battery trouble to me..

I've had an Aerospace for 11 years and probably changed the battery two or three times. When the battery is low, if I recall correctly, the digital display "flashes" (cycles on and off).

Am afraid that your problem is not simply a low battery. Sorry to confirm your suspicion of bad news!!
