Hi,

Just bought this Flying Fish from a close friend, he almost never used it, and i have just noticed that the crown is not sitting evenly on the left side on the case when screwed tight to the case.

My questions is; Is this normal or is something bent :?:
The watch is only 3 years old and is my first Breitling.

Best regards.

Looks like either a bent crown stem or a problem with the attachment of the crown to the stem - not normal.

Hi, Thanks for your reply.

I asked my friend and he told me that he has never dropped the watch or enything like that. No marks or dents on the crown.
Is this easily repaired at a dealer :?:
Maybe it's covered under warranty.

Best regards.

Will need Breitling service attention and I highly doubt a damaged crown / crown stem would be covered by warranty as Breitling will claim owner damage.
