Is my Breitling 6.75 DOA?

[Texas1999]

Received it today. Movement is New Asia Valjoux 7750 (28,800bph). Shook it for a few minutes....nothing. Unscrewed the crown, manually wound it about 50 turns...nothing. Shook it again for a few more minutes...nothing.

Am I missing something here? The watch is beautiful and appeared to be functioning fine on the timegrapher QC pic, so I'd hate to have to send it back.

I would contact the Dealer.

I was about to order one. Where did you order from, so I know not to buy from them?

It's not the dealers fault. The 6.75 uses a Modified A7750 which in my opinion is a micky mouse movm and they are prone of having problems. Especially with the Date Wheels changing over via Crown...Other than that it's a beautiful watch. I personally had the Gen and now have a rep with the Black Dial which I had it serviced not to long ago.
