2360 problems
It is hard to believe that so many examples of the BP 2360 so would persistently fail to work properly. Are you absolutely certain that you are winding the mechanism properly as per the directions in the booklet? If you don't wind the watch correctly the power reserve will be depleted and the watch will come to a stop. This is particulalry so if you are sedentary (sitting on airplanes most of the time) or not wearing the watch every day. Automatics of any manufacture do not work well for people with less active lifestyles. Try fully winding your watch and wearing it every day and see what happens. You may well find it worthwhile to get a winder on which to place the watch when not using it to keep the power reserve fully "charged." Failing that, possibly you should consider a manual wind watch--I have a BP 2000 and am delighted with it beyond measure.
Good luck!
we are devastated!

I have no doubt that you meant well, but frankly, I find it a bit upsetting when I am reading, “it is hard to believe…” or when people tell us that it might be our fault. It might, but it is not. We own many watches, our weakness, from the best shops and ...

I can understand how frustrated you are. I can only speak from my personal experiences. I am collecting Blancpain watches since 1999 due to its high quality and exclusive product in particularly of its movements. So far I have bought 6 Blanpcain watches f...

I am sorry; I do not want to be impolite, but after reading your posting I doubt that you can understand how frustrated we are. We asked for helpful comments or advise and not for panegyrics. I am sure Blancpain will be very grateful for your advertisemen...
? BP reliability

Stork5, good luck with your new purchase. I've been looking at watches for a while and BP Leman GMT was one of my choices as I quite like the finish of their movements for a reasonable price. However, after reading your post, it scares me to know how much...
