Chrono Second Hand Stutters.......

I wasn't sure where to post this, but it is a movement issue....

I had a few drinks and was watching the seconds hand on my Asian high-beat 7750 in a PAMafake chrono. The seconds hand distinctly stutters around the 20-35 seconds mark, otherwise it is smooth a hell. So, I then took a looksy at my gen Glashutte chrono and, I couldn't believe this, but it stutters in the same manner.

Why does this happen? I guessed that an Asian chrono would have certain flaws, but one of the premiere movements in the world having the same issue?? What gives? There must be a technical reason for this, right?

I may be rehashing an old post, but WTF...........it's a good discussion.
