Hi, I just got a 2nd watch piece which is a IW377714 Pilot Chrono Le Petit version. I notice that the rotor sound is pretty obvious. Is that normal? Any inputs would be grateful. Thanks.

There have been many discussions on this topic so you can search The Forum using the magnifying glass icon on the top right. Search terms - wobble, noisy rotor etc.

Normal for the movement in the 3777
The Valjoux/ETA 7750 movement has a loud rotor
