i think the most obvious is if its too hard. else, if the shape isnt normal, something isnt kosher too (shall we take this thread elsewhere?)

Hi again, would like to know if the hour, minute hands of rolexes are supposed to have free play when setting the time? When i pull the crown to the 2nd position to set the time, if i jus gently rock the crown back n foth, the hands seem to hav a little free play to them..

Thanks.

Common on vintage pieces but did not notice this on newer rolexes.

Wah quick response.
Hmm... Can any other owners of milguass help me verify this?

Thanks again.

My minute hand will rock a little, but i guess this is normal. And mine is a month old, not milgauss though.
