Noisy Movement?

I’m a long time rep purchaser, usually with Puretime but u tried JTime recently for the first time.

Firstly, experience was excellent. Li & Lana were quick, responsive and I received the watch a lot faster than expected 10/10 from that point of view..

However upon receiving the watch, I’ve found the movement is very noisy - I’ve never experienced this before with Rep Rolex’s or Omegas. And it certainly didn’t highlight this in the QC videos..

I’m not the type of person that tries to claim my watches are real, I always tell people they are reps and direct to RWI if they’re interested but this is the first time I think someone would know in a heartbeat as they’d hear the crunchy movement if they’re within a metre of me..

Anyway advice on how to fix / rectify?

I learned something today.
Yet another reason not to get a PP.
This sounds like you have a portable hotel aircon unit on your wrist

Even if this watch does not have a clone movement (and I don't know based on this post which factory he got) it could be noisy. If this watch is using a Miyota 9015 movement, then it should be noisy due to the unidirectional rotor. Additionally, when adding deco to the rotor, it gets noisier.

@Pj2009, is the watch using a clone movement, or a Miyota 9015 movement?
