This is my first IWC watch and it squeaks when I hand wind it or when I screw lock the crown. Is it supposed to be like this?
Advice please...

maybe i am wrong but it sounds like a tight and dry gasket. a little oil at the service center will do the job.Originally posted by alchia View PostAudemars Piguet Ball Bell&Ross Cartier IWC Longines Omega Panerai Rolex Sinn Tissot

I'll have a check at the service centre.
Where is the official IWC centre? I googled and it pointed me to ION. HmmComment

btw, i brought it to Sincere and they said its the sound of the watch being wound and its fine... I didn't think it would be like that though. Anyhow, I won't be winding it much since I'll wear it daily...
Love the watch!Comment

Ok, if you put it near to the ear you can hear the sound, other then that i can't hear it and i guess it normal.

You can bring it to Richmont at king's Ctr 8th floor. But I dont think there's anything wrong with the sound, it happens to me too.Originally posted by alchia View PostI rather push my Alfa Romeo than drive a BMW

I suppose the threads of the stem is still new...after a few more time of screwing in and out will be better...or u can check if the threads are cross threaded?
For a peace of mind i suppose popping by the service centre will be better...Courage is what it takes to stand up and speak
Courage is also what it takes to sit down and listen

went richemont for a check.. results are that it is normal but they can reduce the sound with lubrication.. have to keep it for a 3-4 working days which I declined.. watch too new to be kept away from the hand.. and I don't hand wind it anyway...
I'll probably bring it in after a few months to make the sound go away
Just thought i'll share if anyone has the same problem.Comment
