Is it normal to hear the movement produce a metal to metal grinding noise when winding it on a DJ?

Please see watch in question. It functions normally but the winding is quite loud.

Something wrong there for sure inside

It probably needs oiling, have it checked..

I have not experienced a grinding sound when winding my DJ, nor with my other timepieces. I guess it's time to have it serviced.

Thanks for your input...

My other time pieces do not make this steel grinding noise so I was concerned when I heard it. I hope service will correct this DJ and not be the rotor or other technical parts.

Thanks,

Definitely get it checked out, it shouldn't be very loud. After you get it serviced (if it needs servicing) I would recommend you purchase a solid Watch Winder from Amazon. Your wearing the best, might as well take care of it the best.
