Breitling Navitimer Ticking?

[DVDA]

Bought my first Breitling, a Navitimer A13330 Fighter (used obviously since model was discontinued 15+ years ago).

Watch is in excellent condition, however it ticks very loudly. I can hear very rapid ticking when only 6-8 inches away from my ear.

I grabbed my Rolex Explorer I, couple of Omega, Tag Carerra and my Maurice Lacroix Pontos and put them on my ear and couldn't hear their movement as loud as Breitling.

Is this common for Breitling movement? Or does this watch need service (seller Claims it was serviced)

I cannot hear mine for the life of me.

ETA movements are more easy to hear than others I’ve owned.

They tend to be louder than my rolexes, which i never hear-at all. I would not worry as long as it keeps good time and all functions work as expected.

I have an ETA in my UN, works like a charm.
