The only debate is over how widespread the problem is. Some believe you have as much likelihood of splitting an atom when you go to cut into your steak at dinner. But many of us have already seen too many of these "exceedingly rare" reports to believe it isn't systemic to some extent. Does it impact every single 32xx? Of course not. Has any quality mechanical item ever had a 100% failure rate? That would be as shocking as a 0% failure rate. But in addition to the obviously defective pieces, my personal 180 amplitude (but still keeping spec time) Sub suggests there could be a whole group of movements that may be on borrowed time even though things look great at the moment. We shall see. And that is precisely the point of the thread. I am quickly losing interest in explaining the concept of an ellipsoid to flat earthers. (That is not directed at you VTC!)

Hey, I agree!
I find it troubling that even in our small sample size it is (roughly) a two to one ratio. I am no statistician, but to me that suggests something is amiss. I am actually dreading the next several months to one year to see if mine has any issues, but... I guess we will see. The issue that upset me is his bias of the posted information. For example, on mine, I posted the Amplitude readings of my watch in six different positions as taken by a certified Rolex Watchmaker, they showed excellent results in every aspect. He suggested that it was only due to the fact the watch was recently wound. And Rob’s post saying all his watches were running well.... He gets questioned about the validity of his post. Really?
Anyway, I am done with this, what could have been an interesting thread has turned in to a “look at me-the sky is falling” exercise. I don’t want to waste any more time. I surely hope the issue is resolved... somehow. New part? New lubrication procedure? I hope it gets fixed.
PS. No offense taken, I liked the remark about the flat Earthers!
