1st Panerai!

Finally bit the bullet and purchased a pre-owned PAM 162, complete with everything, including 3 straps.

However, when I rotate my wrist, I hear something "sliding". Any ideas?!

Thanks in advance.

congrats!! enjoy it. let's see some wrist shots.

re: the "sliding", it could be the famous "wobble" (as the movement is based on the Valjoux 7753)? if so, totally normal.
