Omega Planet Ocean Chrono

Hi All,

Just looking for a little advice if possible. Ive owned my Planet Ocean Seamaster chrono for just over a year and last night noticed it had stoped, its the first time its done this when wearing it so I manually gave it about 8 turns, it ran for another 20 mins then stopped again? starting intermitently. Normaly wh you move the watch you can hear the autowinder spinning but instead there was like a plinking noise coming from inside. Left it overnight and it seems to be ok again, the aotu movement spinning noise has returned alough seems a little unballanced when activating in the hand. Should I just leave it for a few more days and if all is well ignore it or just get it in to the dealers and put up with a long wait (A colleague told me it could be 3-4 weeks! :-0 )

Its my first foray into the world of a nice watch so I am a little worried as it cost me so much to buy. Any advice welcomed and appreciated.
Kind Regards
Che
