It was running quite fast (+20 spd) when I bought it new from AD.

Sent it to Rolex in Toronto, and after a quick 9-day turnaround, it's back home, and so far, in 5 days, it gained less than 2 seconds. Now, that's what I expected from a Rolex.

However, no explanation as to why it was running fast. Only comment was "watch set to ex-factory standard of 2 minutes per month", if that means anything...

Anyway, problem solved, that's all I needed.

Glad it's sorted, and enjoy that watch! (It's an "Explorer", not "Explorer I").
