In my mind it doesn't even matter what the real % is - because clearly there are unrepresented people in the "no issues" category - it shouldn't be this easy to find a group of 100 people having hit a problem on such a high end instrument.
I'll vote in your 31xx thread
As I currently have two watches with the movement do I get two votes?

As a heads up, I would say i have had no problems for nearly 10 years on one of them with one needed service under it's belt as a daily wearer and the other for around 6 years as an occassional.
Both have been rock solid timekeepers the entire time at about -2.5 to -3 seconds per day regardless.
Sadly I won't be engaging in the timeographer aspect as they both run good enough for me though a bit closer to 0 seconds per day or slightly faster at +1 would be nice.
No appreciable variation in positional timekeeping to be reported to cancel out the slightly slow rate.
