The previous generation of non-date watches had different calibre movements (3132) in the larger dialed (therefore, long-handed) pieces (Exp 39, OP39) vs the smaller-dialed ones like the 36mm and Sub (3130). Similar difference for large-dialed date watches (3136 in DJII, 3156 in DDII). The "12" series use the same calibre in 36, 40, and 41mm watches. I started to wonder about this when I realized that most of the complaints on here (granted, very small overall sampling) about 32xx issues, especially recurrent ones, were in larger-diameter watches (DJ41, SD43). But who knows... |

Now, of course, I’m also wondering if Mk 1 and Mk 2 214270s were calibrated differently, given the difference in hands. |

Submariner Date (126610LN purchased 2/16/22 from an AD)
On 2/25/22 I set the time as close as possible to time.is (0 sec delta) On 3/3/22 (6 days later) the watch was lagging by 4 seconds On 3/12/22 the watch was lagging by 8 seconds On 3/13/22 I set the time as close as possible to time.is (0 sec delta) On 3/19/22 (6 days later) the watch was still accurate to 0 seconds lead/lag What's interesting is that setting the watch on two different occasions, the first time it was 4 seconds lagging after 6 days, and the second time it was dead on after 6 days. Both times I set the time and then wound the watch manually 25 times (full rotations). |

Just sold my 126710BLRO, was not easy at all to let it go ... The new owner knows and does not care about the 3235 movement issue of this watch. |

I own two and I don’t care. If it proves to be a problem when I’m out of warranty then maybe I’ll care. At this point they are the most accurate watches I own.

It’s a pity Saxo3… I’m pretty sure you didn’t lose any money selling it. But I wonder if you’ll regret your decision when Rolex come up with a solution for this issue (If they haven’t already). If history is any indication, the 3231, 3236 , 3286 calibres are bound to come sooner or later. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Ah man. Well at least you got out at a good time. I don't think $30k USD will do it for me. Maybe at $40-50K I'd sell just because there's other things I'd prefer to do with the cash than this watch. Hope you find another piece you love.

I'm currently tracking my 2017 SD43 against my 2020 Sub41.
First 48h (full wind dial up) show -5.4 s/d for the SD43 vs. +1.3 s/d for the Sub41. Makes me wonder if Rolex fixed the 3235 with their latest batch. |

I initially voted that my 126710BLRO was running perfectly. Now, 4 years into ownership it's started losing 12s/d. I think I'll be sending it in to RSC when I get around to it.

My 124060 sub ran great for the 2 weeks I owned it. Awesome watch, but that 904L sadly irritated my wrist.

Yes I did. The 5th post down states "For those that don’t know your amplitude, just vote on what your timekeeping is doing." I wore the watch for 2-3 days straight, then once every 3 days when the rash developed. It never stopped as I'd wind it when in between wears. My vote was: "Yes, no issues."

Yes I messed up big time. I had a Y serial 16710 that I haistly got rid of for the 124060. I had no skin irritation issues with the 16710 whatsoever. I've always had problems with sterling silver, buttons on certain jeans, belt buckles, etc. I had a problem with a stainless chain years back, and the jeweler I purchased it from was perplexed and so was I. After this more recent incident I now have a better understanding of the correlation between the 904L stainless and the rash. I have no problems with any of my chains or earrings, but they are 18K yellow gold & 950 Platinum.

That is the plan, either an 1803 or 18239. My other option is anything pre mid 80's in stainless. Although my 16710 from 2002/2003 didn't bother me, to be safe I'd probably go 316L next time around. My first choice is an early 80's 16750. Problem with all of these is finding one that fits my liking.

My Explorer 124270 was running -5s/day straight from the AD. Watch was purchased 12/31/21. I decided to wear it for a while to see if it would self regulate and I also played around with leaving it dial up overnight. The watch stayed -5s/day so I decided to take it to the AD for service. I figured it would only get worse over time so better have it taken care of now.

I washed the watch in dish soap and warm water before and after each wearing, and made sure I took a shower as well. I tried to hold out thinking maybe some residue coating was left on the watch from the machining process, yet every time I wore it the rash got worse, even though the watch had just been cleaned and I had just showered. I haven't worn a watch on a daily basis for around 6 years, so it's not that much of a loss for me, but it definitely felt good to have one on the wrist again. |

Maybe even Rolex will venture into the use of more titanium in the future (to be honest, I am kind of surprised they have not already.) |

My amplitude is 212, beat error 0.1 to 0.4 and it's -6 a day on the wrist. Shows an avg of that on the timegraph as well. 2020 GMT II
