Skydweller rotor noise... help

hello All, my first post here and happy to be a new member. I recently purchased a Used Rolex Skydweller from an AD in Maryland and as I wear the watch more and more I 've noticed a very loud almost grinding noise coming from what I believe is the rotor when I move my arm rather fast. I've reached out to this authorized dealer and even sent him a video of the noise coming from this watch. he says it is normal as the new bearing config of the 90001 movement/rotor. they also mentioned that bc of the larger 42mm case the noises will be more prominent.
he says that if it is keeping time correctly , which it is, it is best not to open it for service, but he is happy to take it back for a look inside.
I just don't buy this reply from them. I have a sub, a date just, and a pelagos tudor and they are all very smooth and quietly running. please let me know your opinions as I am gutted and disappointed from my most admired rolex… the skydweller!

BTW is there a way to upload a quick video of what the watch sounds like here?

thank you all in advance
