I never suspected the 22xx watches might have this issue so I honestly never looked at my wife's DJ31 (caliber 2236, lift angle
52) from mid 2021 until a few days ago.

I'll check again in 6 months to see if it has changed. The timekeeping is reasonable for my purposes but the amplitude certainly doesn't look particularly strong (notably lower than her never-serviced 2006 Explorer 36, for example).
Of note to me, even after resting the full 24 hours in the dial up position on the timegrapher, the amplitude readings were jumping around quite a bit (in a 15 degree range which is more than I typically see in one position at one time).
If these calibers have the same "shouldn't drop below 200 degrees in any position in the first 24 hours" benchmark that the 32xx has, then this one failed that.
Hopefully it's ok, I really don't want to have to ask the mods to change the thread title to "x2xx movement problem"
