Well the numbers seem quite good. Caliber 3230, correct?

Is this normal for the precision to drop off drastically around the end of pr, or is this a potential 3235 movt. problem? (i don't have the timing device, so can't say for sure.)
35 minutes is way too much. I quote HiBoost and think it should be checked on a machine to see the performance. Just to be sure before bring it on a timegrapher, I'll do the test again to see if there's some sort of consistency with the numbers.

Exactly, and you'd be the first to notice it. If it was a flaw in the escapement or on the material as we speculated, it will definetly show on these 2 as well.

We have the same watch and I saw some people having the same issue but it's less widespread with 3230s calibers. That is what I noticed by asking Rolex watchmakers. Your watch is being worn everyday?
