Just received my Omega in the mail today. It looks incredibly amazing, excellent finish, however the winding makes a lot of noise. When gently shaking the watch, almost feels like something is loose, or off. Wanted to see if anyone else experienced this issue or has any advise? It appears to be holding time well but movement inside is giving me concern. Any thoughts? Thanks in advance!

Mate, a 2824 Movement makes "sandy" feeling and some noise when winding, thats normal.
Also what you hear, is the rotor, which gives the "automatic" touch of self winding while moving your hand normal during the day.
In allday situations, only one I can think of you hearing the rotor, is jerking off as a lefthanded person.
Then i would go for manual watches:)

"Rotor winding" noise is a common complaint among titanium cased watches, even gens.
