It’s obvious there is a huge force to direct and influence the “optics” of the Rolex brand to a flawless reputation. I can only assume this goes beyond the typical fanboy love and more of a monetary motivation. Too many people are in too deep with what they paid for their Rolex and “need” the inflated secondary market to stay solid and keep the Pyramid market strong.
Any negative report or possibility of a movement issue can jeopardize this and dismissed as “tinfoil hat” conspiracies by ignorant owners that can’t tell if their watch is losing more seconds in a day than in-spec. Empirical data is too complicated to interpret and best left unspoken as you can not trust your lying eyes or basic math skills. I guess as long as you can keep flipping your watch for a few grand profit, proper movement performance is inconsequential.
You nailed it [emoji1303].
