·This is a bit of a double post so I hope that I don't get fried for it. I wanted to get a little more exposure to this and thought maybe it would be better to post it as its own topic rather than buried in different post.
This is a new Hesalite Speedmaster pro. When setting the time, I noticed that there was a slight movement of the chronograph seconds hand. Upon further investigation, I found that if I were to move the crown until the hands start to engage, and then turn it ever so slightly back and forth, the entire cannon pinion (?) and hands will bounce up and down. And, when I say bounce, I mean vertically up and down from 12 to 6.
Unfortunately, the service representatives at Omega were not much help, so I thought I'd try my luck with an actual watchmaker and messaged Archer. He hasn't heard of any others reporting this behavior. For all of you 3861 owners out there, do you experience anything like this?
The video below captures this movement:
