Hi all, new to the forum here. I just purchased the pam 253 about 2 weeks ago. the watch was running fine, it had stopped a few times when I had not worn it for a couple days. Last night, I picked it up, and while i was setting the time i noticed that the minute hand felt like it was slipping. i am a total noob, and really dont know much, so I cant really explain in technical terms. It felt as if while i was turning the crown, it would bind, the jump, the spin a bit llose, then be back to normal, and then the same cycle over again. Is this bad? is it normal? any and all help and insight would be greatly appreciate it. And please go easy on moe this is my first rep. Thanks
