wobble is pretty common in crowns, threaded crowns have a keyed spring detente so you can push the crown in and thread it down without turning the the stem out the other side of the watch. The spring detent wears with age and the crown develops a bit of wobble, sometimes they are sloppy when new. if the spring wears out then it becomes very hard to set or wind the watch because the crown pushes past the keyed surface and free spins instead of turning the stem.
wobble isn't really anything to worry about usually other than it triggers an OCD episode
