Complete Overhaul REPAIR & SERVICE
Breitling Cockpit Lady’s
Gray & Sons Jewelers, located in Miami Beach, Florida is an independent watch service center, repairing Breitling Cockpit Lady’s watches since 1980.
Designed for women who appreciate a solid yet elegant performance timepiece, the Breitling Cockpit Lady’s Quartz watch is a strong competitor for all modern women’s timepieces in the market. While it may look like a typical mini Breitling watch, the Breitling Cockpit Lady’s watch took lots of trial and error in the making.
Breitling Cockpit Lady’s Quartz
Although the style is fairly robust and sport-like, the ladies’ This Breitling Cockpit watch holds femininity and elegance not provided by many others. The 31mm stainless steel case presents a glare-proof crystal with a blue face holding diamond hour markers along with Arabic numerals. Surrounding the dial is a blue uni-directional rotating bezel which can be used as a dual-time indicator or count-down/timer tool.
Within this ladies’ Breitling Cockpit watch is a 71 caliber battery-powered quartz movement. Originally designed for the Breiling Windrider watch Collection, the Breitling Lady’s Cockpit watch holds a water resistance of up to 100 meters below sea level. The SuperQuartz movement inside this Breitling Cockpit is a thermo-compensated quartz electronic movement and it has an EOL indicator showing when it’s time for a battery change.
While this specific variation of the lady’s Cockpit watch is in stainless steel, the timepiece can also be acquired in precious metals such as yellow or rose gold. One can also choose to style their Breitling Cockpit watch on a rubber or leather strap. Additionally, those who prefer a dressier Breitling timepiece can opt to upgrade to a diamond bezel, giving the timepiece a completely new feel.

Gray & Sons - Top Watch Repair Service Center For High Caliber Watches
This watch came to Gray and Sons through a client looking to sell their pre-owned Breitling Cockpit watch. Although the watch was in reasonably good condition, factories recommend one to service automatic watches every 3-5 years to upkeep the quality of the watch’s timekeeping.
Since this watch came to G&S from a previous owner, we went ahead and brought the watch back to like-new condition before finding its new owner. Every watch sold at Gray and Sons Jewelers comes with a “Like-New for Life” warranty. Customers who buy a quartz watch at Gray & Sons Jewelers have a lifetime of free battery changes with G&S for as long as they own that watch.
The LNFL warranty guarantees that anyone who buys a watch at Gray & Sons Jewelers can bring the watch in once a year and Gray & Sons will externally clean and polish the watch as long as the customer services the watch every 3-5 years.
We make sure to check all the boxes when quality controlling an item that will eventually acquire a new owner to enjoy. Every watch that comes into Gray and Sons Jewelers for repair will automatically receive a 12-month warranty once received by the customer post-repair. Rolex watches in particular receive a 24-month mechanical warranty.
First things first, we open the case back of the watch and look for any rusted or damaged parts that need sourcing. In this case, the movement was in good condition, the movement just needed some cleaning, new gaskets, and a new battery. Once we’ve diagnosed the problem on the watch and know if and what extra watch parts are needed, our watchmaker takes apart the watch piece by piece and prepares it for overhauling.
Breitling Cockpit Lady’s Quartz Watch service and maintenance
The watch movement, crystal , and watch stem are separated from the head and bracelet . The case and bracelet are given to our head polisher while our watchmakers begin working on the movement. Piece by piece, our watchmaker begins dismantling the watch’s mechanism and evaluating every piece.
Once the watch parts that need sourcing are identified, our watchmaker prepares the timepiece’s screws, springs, pivots, and plates to be cleaned and sources the parts that are needed. We use six different cleaning solutions in an ultrasonic machine to make sure all dirt, dust, and dried oils are extracted from every crevice within the watch parts.
Once the watch parts are cleaned, the watchmaker starts to reassemble the movement while adding lubricants wherever designated and replacing all the gaskets for water resistance.
This tedious process usually takes anywhere from two to five hours per watch! Of course, assuming the watchmaker isn’t interrupted and all parts continue functioning.
While Gray and Sons’ watchmaker worked on the movement, we had our polisher give this watch a light polish around the case to remove the minor scratches. He then put the case in our ultrasonic machine for a bath and finally to rinse and dry.
Once our watchmaker puts together the movement and re-cases the watch, it's time for the final steps of our repair process. Prior to returning the client their watch, we must execute a final quality control process to ensure the watch is running as new as possible.
In this quality control, we measure the watch’s amplitude using special machines that listen to the heartbeat of the watch. We also test the watch’s water resistance with a machine that simulates a deep plunge using air pressure to check for leaks.
Additionally, we check that all complications are functioning fully; in this case the hour and minute hands, sub-second dial, date window, and chronograph timers. If both timekeeping and water tests pass, the watch gets put on our winding wheel for observation where it rotates and mimics the movement of the wrist for 6-8 hours. The watch must then rest and run for the next 20-30 hours; this ensures the automatic rotor that powers the reserve perform excellently.
