Pam 90 Question

I'm still basking in the glow of my recent Pam 90 acquisition and I now have what will probably be a very silly question.

When I shake the watch I can hear (or feel) the rotor spinning. It's not very loud, I just have a light touch. With my other high end watches I can't hear the rotor spin at all. Is this normal?

Thanks.

Scott

wobble. normal.

You want to hear something crazy, find a ss/metal/glass table that is hollow (like a restaurant prep table), give your watch a good spin and lay it flat on the table. You'll be surprised how loud it is!

google "7750 wobble" and you'll see it's totally normal/to be expected/can be appreciated for what it is.
