Hello, its been a while.
Just bought a 1 year old Bently GT, blue face, mint condition but when I wind the crown there is lots of resistance, it lasts around
40 hours or so which I would expect so it is charging the mainspring ok. Is this normal for a Bently or should it go for a trip to BUK.
Any help please.

This is subjective so it's tough to say whether anything is wrong, and some movements do offer more resistance than others, but if it's only 1 year old then it's still under warranty so certainly worth taking to an AD for an opinion.
