Rolex 3085?

I have seen a few places on the web mention that a 3085 is difficult/finiky to work on. does anyone have any experience with this movement? What is difficult about it?

Anyone?

Is there something about this movement that makes it particularly difficult to dial in?

An adequate watchmaker should have no problem with this movement, essentially it's just a 3035 with an added GMT function. I'm curious as to where this question originated for you. Do you have any other questions?

The question is just due to my curiosity. I have a 3085 in a 16760 and in the research I have done I have come across a few discussions that mention a 3085 as being difficult to work on. I have never found any further explanation as to why they would be more difficult than other Rolex calibers. Possibly due to the de-linking hour hand complications?
