Breitling Emergency

just a simple question,to Emergency owners,

it is true that I have to send out my watch to get the battery changed ? or can I just bring it to any AD ?

Thanks azguy,

thanks for the link, after reading that, i'm not sure I can handle that.. I guess, if I send it out for a battery change, they will service the watch as well...

Or upgrade the movement to Superquartz which is not cheap

I don't believe that is true. When in for service they will however change the transmitter for a new one.

I've received two quotes with the needed upgrade when sent in.
