Is a lil wobble on a 2003 SD normal or a sign to send it off to be serviced.
I had a dj years ago and then recently purchase a used sd. It had a little wobble every now and then but since I had been using panerais for years I just thought it was normal. Now that I have a new sub c, I see there is no wobble. So is the wobble a sign that the roles needs to be serviced?

When I have it on I will feel the auto movement spin, creating a wobble effect.

You should never feel a wobble in a modern Rolex...

What you're feeling might be a worn rotor axle like the one below. If so, the metal being worn off is going into the movement. Best to have it looked as soon.
Here's what a new axle looks like.
