Rolex daydate noises!!
Guys, from my recent posts you'd had seen Ive bought a 1972 Rolex daydate. Love the watch and its been verified as being serviced in Jan 2014 (non official Rolex) Id had the back taken off by my local jeweller (IWC, Cartier franchise..) their Rolex trained guy confirmed it was all 100% genuine etc,, but Ive noticed its has quite a noisy movement when I turn my wrist sometimes it sounds like something is loose, are these older movements a little noisy?? A lot different than my Rolex Daytona!!
Can anyone advise? its all 100% genuine but just a small bit worried!! Many thanks as always Stuart |

Nope I have 4 dd from diff eras none make that noise u described. I can hear it when I put them close to my ears n one loud click at midnite. Maybe something is loose or something got inside.

I think its rotor noise as its only happens when wrist is moved, no noise at all when on wrist and no movement. Does that make sense? |
