Just received my Aquanaut from Jtime.
Ive purchased from Puretime before with no issues, but first time buying from JTime.
Experience with them was good, lots of communication and quick QC and Shipping.

However upon receiving the watch, something the QC doesn't show is the incredibly noisy movement. (tried to capture in video)
I would audibly be able to hear this on my wrist walking through my house..
Has anyone experienced this before? can it be fixed or is it an issue with these movements.

I have messaged Li & Lana from JTime for advice also, will update if and when I hear back

LUBRICATION!!! Most, if not all reps leave the factories with minimal cleaning of movement and zero lube. This is terribly bad for automatic movements, just imagine your car running without oil. It may work for a while, even years for some watches, but metal grinding against metal in any mechanical scenario is going to make noise.
