32xx movement problem poll and data thread

[CharlesN]

I do understand that some people think that the monitoring that has been done in this thread is so we can "have a go" at Rolex.

That is completely wrong.

There is no intention of that in any way whatsoever.

We are doing the monitoring, data collection and research to learn more and see if we can spot the very subtle changes and improvements that Rolex have made with the new 32xx movements.

I can tell you that there appears to be very definate and marked difference in the 32xx movements with and without a date in regards to Amplitude readings which can and does seem to have a knock on effect on the rate.

This was and is not so visable in the 31xx movements.

I am currently now trying to find out why there is this difference.

The timekeeping of the 32xx movements is still stunningly good on both date and non-date models.

It is not "Upset" by the date function to any noticable degree. It can only be detected by constant TimeGrapher monitoring and recording.

The "accusation" made by some of addiction, compulsion and other similar descriptions of my monitoring and researching is also incorrect.

I am quite simply an enthusiastic watch collector and hobbyist who hopefully, like you, is enjoying a hobby. (Aka WIS).
