Good morning all,
This morning when I awoke my ear was up against my 8 month old Avenger Skyland and I heard a very loud mechanical sound that lasted several seconds. Is this normal for an automatic timepiece? Thank you for your assistance. Regards, Bryan

bryan- would definitely say its pretty normal. My chrono evo which has valjoux 7750 makes noises and vibrations. Its the soul of your watch saying good morning, bryan.

After someone got into a brawl with me i blocked their jump with my arms. I heard noises but I was overreacting because until the fight I had never put my watch near my ear. The zips and noises should all be normal. . Movement and accuracy should be within COSC standards.

hope this helps
if not check with some other guys such as driver 8, breitlingsource, roffensian..

All this talk of blocking jump kicks and fights has me more interested than noises coming from a watch. Being a respectable Breitling Source Member I'm sure you didn't start this skirmish???:P

Nathan- no I didn't start the skirmish. Someone else started this and decided to lunge themselves at me. I blocked them, and then I was paranoid that the watch had damage because I didn't know auto watches made zips and whirs and vibrations.

thanks for lookin out "
regards
