Second hand slightly move back when adjusting time
HiMy Omega Smp has an issue that I don't know whether it's normal or not. When I adjust time, second hand stops. however, if I turn crown counter clockwise to make minute hand goes backward, the second hand also move slightly backward about 0.5s, if minute hand goes forward, this issue doesn't happen. So is this normal? because my other watches from other brand don't have this issue, second hand always stand still.
