I just got a new Breitling Chrononmat 40 with green dial....
I love the watch(very comfortable and great color), BUT it is 5-8 seconds slow....
Is this expected???...thought it should be a little less....
THANKS!!

That feels low. My Breitling runs about +1 or +2 a day. And they are all COSC certified. I think you should take it in. Maybe it was held too near a magnet?

No...not near a magnet......
I will check it out this week and if still 6 sec or more off, will take it to AD....
Beautiful watch but not happy!
Chronomat 40 GMT!....left out the GMT part....

Just took it to the Breitling Boutique in King of Prussia, Pa today....
Will be sent out to Breitling for service....
Told that it could be 3-4 months!!!!!!:

Magnetized watches would run significantly off COSC, not just a few seconds. And I would have waited to send it in until closer to end of warranty.

It's not great, but i consider everyting around 5 seconds to be good enough for me.

Warranty work gets priority over anything else so you'll have you watch back in less than 4 months. Both times that my Chronomat Airborne went in for warranty work, it was back within a month.
