5513 1960s Hour hand moves slightly setting time

I have a 5513 maxi from the 60s. It’s a beautiful watch albeit has a replacement bezel and has certainly been polished. I wanted an exact birth year so I bought it.

Moving on to my question. When setting the watch if I move the minute hand backwards the hour hand moves ever so slightly too. Afterwards, it isn’t unaligned while functioning and the watch keeps shockingly perfect time. It has always done this since I bought it. It’s a minor annoyance but I was wondering if all 5513s do this or if mine has a fault? I’ve had it for many years now, it never misses a beat, I’m just curious that’s all.

Thanks if anyone has any comments.
