Yesterday I didn't wear the watch. Today I put it back on, and it's roughly +2.5 (but was -1.5 when I took it off on Sunday night).
When I store it, granted, it's dial-up but this is how I've always kept it at night.
Reading through this thread, it seems that the issues have been more pervasive with the earliest 3235 movements, but I'm reaching the six month mark with mine, which I also seem to recall being when some of these popped up.
Does anyone know whether there were specific component changes made to the movement at some point, and whether it was all 32xx or just some?

As far as I know (or rather as far as we've been informed so far by Bas or others in the know) there have been no updated components since the 32xx was introduced. I'm more than happy to be corrected on that if that's not the case.
I'm not sure if the issue is endemic to just earlier movements or not as most of the time the issue seems to come along between 6 and 18 months if it's going to happen at all. My problematic SD43 was from 2019, so not one of the earliest 3235's out there.
All we can say from the poll on this thread is that it's been ticking over slowly and the numbers still show around 25% of respondees experiencing the issue. i.e. the percentage has not started to drop yet, which you'd expect if it was resolved and more people were responding with no issues. I admit a poll here is not exactly scientific, but it gives an indication IMO.
