My watch was running fast....seemed to be gaining a few minutes in a week. When I found out the only way to get it corrected under warranty was to send it back to Rolex myself or have the AD send it back, it got more serious about testing the accuracy. I followed the instructions from one of the friendly forum members here and wound it 40 times. My SA hadn't told me that and I think I had been winding it about 30 times in the past (only had the watch a couple of mos).
It's been 5 days and since re-setting and winding 40 times, seems to be keeping much better time.
Could under-winding cause the watch to run fast?
thanks for all your advice to a newbie
