·I guess with old age then the rotor noise issue will diminish. Gotcha! Thanks for the tip 😜

·Thanks. Relived not a fault. Maybe I’ll get used to it. I know all rotors make some noise, but this is rather disappointing for a supposedly flagship movement in a $5.5k Noisy to wind too! Still i love the design. So I’ll get over it - same as I did with the Tele18. 😁

·Your Cal 18 Telemeter is noisy too? I thought maybe it was just mine. Louder than any other watch I have. I have a theory that it could be the sapphire caseback that amplifies the sound somehow.
it is a bit rattly - i’ll have to check how it compares. Noise level wise they all compare to the MLx Pontos I have.

··TAG Heuer Forums ModeratorI echo what others said. The H02 movement is the loudest.

·That confirms it!
Loud yet not bothered OR Loud & irritating?

i think the current situation makes it far more noticeable. Much less ‘background’ (little traffic) noise so the rotor is far more ‘obvious’. All the autos make noise - just think I noticed these in particular because of when they were bought. I think if ‘normal’ day to day circumstances it won’t be an issue really.
I think with the Tele18 it was not so much of a nasty surprise as it was known to be cheap movement dressed up in a nice package. But with all the hype of the H02 being a flagship ‘in house’ movement maybe the level of expectation was set too high in terms of refinement. That’s now been recalibrated to avoid future disappointment (which is usually only temporary anyway). Being realistic it was probably falsely set (speaking personally) in the first place. Got over it now. Tis only a watch at the end of the day.
Besides, it is not an issue whilst tucked away in a box anyway.

·Just for reference, since i have it personally. I owned 2 calibre 6 tag heuer. It is the quiet-est movement i have in my collection probably.
But it's not a chronograph, so it wouldn't appeal to everyone 😁.

·Great video production from Thailand! This reminds me of the “Watchfinder & Co.” production with highly detailed closed up videos 👍
