Indeed, pure speculation and NOT correct. You did not read this thread?

I believe Rolex has the arduous task of weeding out issues of simple regulation versus real problems with the movement.
That is not correct from what I know.

Then determining if it is a assembly, manufacturing or design issues for each questionable component. Then determine a correction to be taken.
One should not underestimate the diagnostic tools they have and use to characterize brand-new and returning watches.

Early models did not seem to have any issues other than regulation from consumers who demanded the +2/-2 be adhered to.
That is completely wrong. For example, all my three 3235/3285 watches, purchased in 2017 and 2018, had and still have problems which has nothing to do with regulation, other watches are described in this thread.

This takes time. I'm certain any company who has been faced with this type of problem wants desperately to get to the bottom of it. The cost of scraping a movement is just to high and well as developing a new one.
I fully agree with you.

In time I am confident it will be rectified but in a smooth quiet way.
I fully agree with you, I named that in this thread the "silent repair", movement upgrades they do anyhow.

The "brand" is what sells Rolex. No problem will be officially admitted even after it's resolved to preserve the name and propitiate the illusion Rolex has masterfully created.
I fully agree with you.

Finally, nothing learned (at least me)
