blackbird rattles sounds

hi guys,

just got my new blackbird gf and I love it. But I have a few things that bug me:

1) while not a big deal, AR coating seems to be purple at some angles - is this expected on this watch?

2) something rattles inside pretty bad. I thought it was rotor but even if I rock the watch slightly I can hear like something rattles inside. Is this something I can address myself?

Other than that really happy with it

Be grateful you have the correct double AR coating on your crystal, yes, it is intended to be like that, some other watches by GF (same factory) have been issued with an apparently single AR coating. As for the rattling, the rotor could be loose

Did GF change their crystal to double AR already? I bought my V4 when it first came out and it has only single AR on the underside.
