Quick question for the professionals... that Cronel Jet-King has a very strange ticking sound. Every other watch I've listened to has a tick-tick-tick-tick, very sharp and normal sound. This one has an incredibly hollow tong-tong-tong-tong. It's almost like the tick is hitting against a cowbell or something.
Any clues as to why?
It is keeping time fine, maybe +20 seconds in 24 hours which is tolerable for a late 60's early 70's unserviced Swiss movement.
