Normal for the 5167 do make a winding noise?
 

Sometimes when i move my hand I can hear a noise like a winding noise, is that the rotor spinning? is it normal?

Yes, it is and very normal.

it is the rotor spinning and it is absolutely normal

Even on the 5712 and 5726, but more on the 5712 strangely, takes getting used to but yep its A ok

yes it's normal and sounds pretty nice i think

don t know the sound of cal.324 but the 240 is amazing :cheers:

I´d only be worried when your 5167 stops making these sounds. :lol:

Gus, I had never noticed that your avatar is animated until last week, it's freaking me out a bit!

Normal, unfortunately

im technologically challenged, i somehow figured out how to make it move but couldn't for the life of me figure out how to loop it continuously …

i don't think i could do it again if i tried :rofl:

Them rims be spinning Chris Rock style. :chuckle:

Yup its normal

I'm kinda addicted to that noise

thanks

I was startled the first time I heard it as well...I thought I broke something but I read up and found that the buzz is normal.

Yes, and it happens on the 5711 as well. 324 movement.

Perfectly normal and I love it. I often find myself spinning it right next to my ear when I need a little pick-me-up. I also find that it makes the winding mechanism of my Rolex and AP a bit crude and brutish, haha.

how loud is it, out of curiosity?

do you need to be in a silent room/in bed etc? or could it be heard by for instance someone sitting next to you at a meeting?

If you are listening for it you can hear it. Someone sitting next to you might hear it if the room was quiet. It's subtle, but once you notice it you start picking up on it more often.

I just bought a 5167 last week. I find myself lifting it up to my ear throughout the day to hear the sound. I love it.

+1!

whiiizzzzzzzzzzzz!!! love it!

Here's mine doing it so you can compare, mine is normal.

Completely normal.

I've actually come to enjoy the 'whirrr' noise...

As others have said, it's perfectly normal. Unacceptable on a high-end piece from one of the world's top manufacturers (IMO)....but normal nonetheless.
