First Omega Purchase

Hello all! I'm the proud owner of a brand new 2254 bought from the sole AD in Memphis, Tennessee. I've never owned anything nicer than a Pulsar before, so this a new experience for me. I'm very impressed with it and it seems to lose only 1 sec/day, which from what I've read seems to be excellent for a mechanical.

Question, if I apply pressure with my finger straight down on the 12/0 position of the bezel, I hear a click. I don't hear it on the other numbers and it seems to follow the 12/0 around when I rotate it, although quieter. Should this concern me or is this normal? I'm assuming it doesn't affect the water resistance? I poked some of the other Omega Seamasters and similar watches at the store and got different results. A Titanium version seemed to have a lot more general movement in the bezel than the one I bought.

Thanks,
Hal
