JLC Master Ultra Thin Moon Noise

Hi guys,
I recently picked up a jlc master ultra thin moon 39 after being on a wait list for 5 months at my local AD. I love the watch...pictures online definitely do not do it justice.

However, after wearing it over the weekend, I can't help but notice a very distinct sound that I believe is coming from the rotor. It seems to be silent when rotating counter-clockwise, but makes a distinct zipping type noise when rotating clockwise. Has anyone had this issue or know if its normal?

Perfectly normal. The cal.925 winds unidirectionally. The noise comes from the winding train.
