Your new 3285 also exhibits a poor isochronism. As a final measurement (after approximately 1-2 months), I recommend to perform again a series of measurements at 0, 12, 24, 36, 48, and 60 hours to ascertain whether the isochronism has undergone any changes. You probably already thought of that.

I have read many times about giving a watch a break in period (duration varies). By winding, wearing, letting run all the out and repeating, what if anything will that procedure do to "loosen" this watch up?

A most interesting cunundrum with respect to the on the wrist performance vs looking under the hood.
As much as it goes against the grain and knowing what you know looking under the hood, i'm not so sure that i would pursue it any further and wait and see with it as a point of interest or curiosity until something changes with the timekeeping or something else.
Having said that the pull of the 5 year warranty would be the most prudent course of action, especially as accidental damage to the watch can happen at any time which would negate warranty.

The run in period has already happened before shipping the watch. They always used to say it was roughly a couple of weeks for them to settle in.

Thought about this a bit more and wonder if we should be asking a different question: What was wrong with the original fork that was fixed by a replacement?Rather than assuming a design change to the fork itself, what if somehow, through normal wear, the original became deformed somehow?

Could that at least give a clue as to the problem's origin?
