I apologize but inertia is not my strong point, is this argument that the unbalance will put a force on the bearing equivalent to the D'Alembert force created by the imbalance and that these will lead to excessive wear?

An object in motion will stay in motion unless acted on by a force. - Newton's first Law
For a perpetual machine to be possible, not only must the materials last forever, but the machine needs to be in an environment free of any forces. It's simply not possible with the physical laws we must obey.
