Second hand play while adjusting time

Hi,

I have a Sub-c lv and it is about 6 months old. I recently noticed that when I stop the second hand exactly on the 12 marker and then attempt to adjust the minute hand, moving the minute hand backwards (counter clockwise) results in the second hand moving back slightly maybe by a distance of three times the thickness of the second hand tip.

Is this normal or do I need to have this checked up? The watch loses about 1 second per 24 hours with about 15 hours of wear and that hasn't changed since I got it.

thanks

Thanks for the reply. My planet ocean 2500 doesn't do this and so I wasn't sure if it was normal for a rolex.
