Just banged my Breitling Aerospace against a counter and now the display no longer works (intermittant) and it's not keeping time. I believe this happened once before and it turned out to be a broken motherboard or something similar. Can anyone recommend a good watch repair. Last time I took it to a Breitling Dealer in a mall and they charged me over 400 to repair. Hoping I can do better going to a good repair place.

Thanks.

I tried in vain to find a replacement for the same watch....
ETA only makes it for Breitling, so the only options you have are go through Breitling or find a used one ( which is about impossible). IIRC it cost me over $850 to get it replaced. They make you replace the hands and other items when they do it. They won't let you have the old parts back either.

You don't have much of a choice, Breitling USA

+1 on what others are saying. Breitling USA is pretty much your only bet unfortunately.
