Rolex Caliber 3285
Hey all
Can anyone confirm that the new Caliber 3285 movement when winding the crown clockwise, sends the hour hand in the opposite (counterclockwise) direction? This is for the new ROLEX GMT MASTER II ROLESOR REF. 126711CHNR A.K.A 'ROOTBEER' I am suspicious as i thought they always went the same direction of the crown to hour hand. Thanks! |

You’re in Australia. Things are opposite there.

Thanks everyone, i watched some unboxing videos and can confirm when they turn the crown it goes counterclockwise to turn the time forward.

Does anyone know what should be the settings for a watch winder for caliber 3285?
Wondering if 1300 rotations per day (alternating directions) would still hold true, can't find any online reference for this. Thanks! |

A winder does not actually "wind" the watch, it simply keeps it at a constant stare of wind. The new movements do have a higher power reserve, but they still use the same amount of power per day as they always have, so there is no need to use a different setting. Rolex movements stay wound on a winder or on your wrist at ~650 turns per day.
