| Post subject: | Aerospace running too fast |
Hi, My Aerospace (2 years in use) is running too fast. I noticed that it is running about a minute too fast after about 10 days. I am comparing the time to an atomic adjusted clock.  What could be causing it? Low battery? The illumination works. TIA, Sergio |

Not sure if a low battery would cause it, it may need a service or simply regulating. If it's not quite 2 years old then get the AD to sort it under warranty, if over 2 years then it probably still needs AD attention but you will have to pay. Might be worth checking the battery first, but I suspect that there is more to it. |

Can Aerospace accuracy (even it is not a mechanical watch) be adjusted by Breitling authorized person? |

Does this mean more time consuming for quartz than for mechanical watch? My Aerospace is gaining about 1 second per week (4-5 second/month), I'm wearing it at most once a week so not sure if I wear it every day, will it change the rate. For next battery change I will check for this and if there is extra charge for. |

It may simply need a service at the next battery change and then they will adjust the rate as part of the process. |
