OP 39mm accuracy after drop

Dear all,

I'm a long time lurker but this is my first post, so please be gentle

I own a Rolex Oyster Perpetual 39 mm - dark rhodium (2016) since a couple of months. I must say that I love the watch and I find it very versatile.

Just after I bought it, I measured its accuracy with a phone app and got -2 spd. Two weeks ago, unfortunately, it was sitting on a chair and dropped to the floor. The travel was about 30cm and the floor was somehow rubber and not concrete.

Nonetheless, I measured it again and I got something around -4 spd. I went to my AD to check it better and he told me that the drop should cause any problem in this case and it's probably that using it, its accuracy changed on its own.

At the beginning the delay was noticeable comparing with an atomic watch, but after some days it kinda recovered and it's now running close to -3 spd.

The movement is a 3132 with paraflex and I suppose that such a small drop should be a big problem. Am I wrong? Am I getting too crazy about accuracy?

So, what do you think? Should I be concerned and send it to the service center? Or even a -4 spd is acceptable (Rolex sells it for -2/+2 spd).

This is my first Rolex, sorry for this paranoid attitude
