No problem. I'm looking at the watch now as it lies flat on the table and the stuttering is barely perceptible and happens so slightly and so occasionally that, like I said, I don't think I'd have even noticed it if I hadn't seen people talking about it. However, if I suddenly flip my wrist suddenly to look at the time (Imagine you fell asleep on the couch, then suddenly woke up and were panicked that maybe you were going to be late! :cryingbadly then I can see the second hand hold it's position for a full second before moving again. Really doesn't bother me though since I just see it as an interesting quirk, it keeps excellent time and I've got no qualms telling people it's a rep if that is considered to a be a ''tell'' that it's not genuine. If you were concerned about it being called out as a rep, then I think the noisy rotor would give you away before the stutter did. When you move your hand around, you can hear it spinning.
