Who wears a Rolex to tell the time anyway?

I think 2 days isn’t long enough to really get an idea of accuracy. I’d set the time, wear it for a month and then see what performance is like.

How old is this watch ? Rolex added the rehaut engraving several years ago.

I am very dubious about the watch.

If you want accuracy buy a £25 quartz watch

I wear my 3186 equipped GMT as it's accurate, so I'd expect no less from Rolex with their new watches.

Sometimes I feel there’s no hope on here.

I wear my watch for about 14 to 16 hours 6 or 7 days a week. I am one of those people where it's the first thing I put on, and the last thing I take off (I take it off to shower). I check the accuracy maybe once every month or two and if it's within 10 or 15 seconds of where I set it all those weeks ago, I am fine with it. It's rarely much more than 5 or 7 seconds off. It's never exact, always a little fast.

I wear mine to tell the time.

It's got to be spot on.

So glad I got a Bloodhound AK with the old movement.

It was a preowned 2018 model. So far it's spot on. Start a work week tomorrow, will check the time next Saturday. But I'm happy. Amplitude is up, beat error is 0.0 and running +1 on the timegrapher. She's looking good!

The AD regulated the 3235 movement? What did they say? "Amplitude is up" means what?

Did you manage to get then5 position printout from your watchmaker

Could you post it here ?

What lift angle was used ?

I would just wear the watch for a few weeks and let it break in. To expect every Rolex out of the factory to be within 1 to 2 seconds a day is probably unrealistic and Rolex, if they do, should stop touting such measurements as the standard on all their watches. Watch timekeeping is affected by wearing habits and how the watch is positioned at rest. I also have had many watches that need a "break in time" of up to several weeks to find their optimal timekeeping. As I understand it, watch rate is about the constant numbers of vibrations within a certain period such as an hour, a day, month or year. It has nothing to do with the watch running fast or slow. So, rate as advertised can be confusing as to its meaning. If exact timekeeping is needed and often it is in certain endeavors, I would use my cell phone rather than a mechanical watch.

No.
It's a preowned watch with a 3235 caliber that is 5+ years old.

Why on earth would you buy a watch using this movement if you’ve had the issue before and read about on here? Rolex employees have even said there is no known permanent fix.

Wouldn’t consider anything with this movement.

No need for panic yet

Spot on and his third even is a preowned 3235 watch
