Well yes it makes a noise, all rotors make a noise to some degree.

It's a 2892 base that winds in both directions so not the noisisest but I wouldn't be concerned that you can hear it.

It just seems like its spinning freely sort of a cheap spin Kim of fast and then as it stops a winding sort of sound. Normal? Anyone understand? Sorry it's difficult to explain!!
Thanks in advance again!!

As long as it's winding the watch I wouldn't be overly concerned, but if you aren't happy then get it checked out.

What I have discovered is that when I give it slight shake sounds like rotor is loose but when I give it a shake to spinn that rotor spins nice only spinng noise. Do rotors have a slight rattle while still? Or slow moving? Sorry for any incovinence just tryin to save myself some time money and a trip to the ad!
Thanks again. Great response time by forum users.

Please don't shake the watch - if it's not broken yet then it soon will be!

It's not really possible to diagnose a sound through a laptop screen, as I have said if the watch is winding then I don't think that there is an issue - anything else is pure guesswork.

Is this your first automatic watch?

Is this your first Breitling?

Yes and yes. I believe now in just paranoid. It was just a little shake of the rotor.
