The Breitling Watch Source Forums

I bought recently an Avenger Chrono titanium from a friend of mine and I love it. When I shake my wrist to wind it, the noise is a little loud and kind of "grinding" instead of the usual soft ratcheting sound. I have a Fortis chrono with a Lemania 5100 and the winding noise is barely noticeable. Is this is ok?, the Avenger keeps perfect time and all chrono functions work perfectly. My friend provided a work order from a jewelry in Houston that shows the watch was serviced and oiled a year and a half ago.

Any feedback on this?

Normal. Google "Valjoux wobble" for more info.

As RJ said, all normal. The CA runs the B13 calibre movement which is based on the Valjoux 7750, which is notoriously noisy. All perfectly normal.
