Rolex deepsea bezel

Hello
There is a small clicking when i press upon the bezel of the deepsea. Something like as if i am pressing on a spring below the bezel with a clicking sound.
This feeling is not available in the old seadweller.
Is this mormal to the bezel of the deepsea?
Regards

It's normal.
There is 3 ball bearings that are spring loaded under the bezel, thus the up and down movement.
The click you are referring to is just the outer metal bezel ring hitting the watch case.

Take a look at this link below. It shows the specs, and most importantly, an expanded view of the components that make up the watch. This clearly shows the 3 bearings with springs, and click pin.
