To all the experienced Breitling owners, thank you in advance for your expertise regarding my Navitimer question. This Navitimer 01 was purchased 10 days ago. I am new to the high end mechanical watch world and would like to know if it is normal to hear a slight rattle when my wrist is turned in order to read the time. I have done some cursory research and have learned that the oscillating weight can cause such a noise. So far, all of the features of the watch work as advertised. The rattle is just slightly disconcerting. Thank you, in advance.

As long as it keeps time there's nothing to worry about. You'll get to love the movement's character :)
