Looks like it would benefit from a full service. It's probably a bit of dirt in the gearing, or possibly a bent pivot. You won't know until you strip it and examine everything very closely with a loupe. I suggest you examine all the parts before and after cleaning.

Has it been cleaned ?

My thoughts exactly! I would inspect every gear for teeth wear also while servicing. Another thing that comes to mind is the hands may be touching at certain places...for any reason (remember Geo's suggestion about bent pivots).

 

Cheers,
