Someone has got to ask this question, mine as well be me.

First, to all of you that are so painstakingly taking measurements, proposing theories, buying expensive equipment to investigate your Rolex, I must say I really don’t understand why. BUT, if this measuring and discussion and interest of yours is a passion you enjoy, more power to you! I am sure a lot of people don’t understand some of my passions and hobbies, to each their own, but here is the question.

Doesn’t all this investigating and searching for a problem with your 32XX movement distract from your enjoyment of the watch?

I akin this to using a loop to find every little nick and scratch on your Rolex and agonizing over it. Some of you, have spent a GREAT deal of time and effort (and perhaps money) on analyzing and critiquing every little tick of your Rolex, (I guess) searching for a fault. Now if your watch is not keeping accurate time, certainly I understand not being satisfied and wanting something done, but from what I have read it seems that a great many are not having any issues, even those that are taking copious measurements. I guess my question is:

Instead of seeking so hard to find fault with your Rolex, if it is keeping decent time, can’t you just wear and enjoy it? Why the concentrated effort to prove something wrong?
