I can hear it happening as the rotor is winding when I move the watch and even at times when the watch had been sitting overnight, which led to beleive that the sound wasn't the overwind mechanism.

I've had the watch for 2 1/2 years and it keeps great time- I guess if there was something wrong this would not be the case.
