Explorer and OP39 Accuracy
In the past year and a half I have purchased 5 new watches from AD’s. The first was Submariner date, Explorer, Ex 2, DJ41, and most recently OP39. The Sub, DJ and Ex2 are extremely right on accuracy. Both the Exp and OP are +5/6 secs a day and even like +2/3s few hours after I set and check their winding. I took the Exp in to the AD for service on the matter earlier this year. They had it over a month and returned it finding no issues.
I have recently purchased the OP39, and noticing the same accuracy concerns. Both watches are certainly in COSC standards but not the Rolex standard. Both watches share a similar calibre. Should I figure it’s common to the 3132, or mechanical watches in general, or is their a valid issue? Any ideas would be appreciated. Randy-IL |

I wouldn't say it's common to the calibre 3132. I have the Explorer and it's run consistently at about +0.5spd.
If it's not within Rolex spec I don't see why they wouldn't regulate it under warranty. |

My OP is less than 1 spd fast. Super accurate.

My 214270 consistently runs just shy of 1.5 sec/day fast

Thanks for your experiences and suggestions. Perhaps will call one of the Rolex service hubs and inquire about specific action.

Same. My 214270 Exp1 runs consistently about +1/day.
