That’s fantastic Jocke … can we send our 32xx movements to you if they are running slow?

I have actually used a microstella tool to adjust Rolex timekeeping. Requires very steady hands and a magnifying headlamp, at least for me. I have built several very small models which helps. Please don't ask me how my hairspring broke on my first attempt.

That is interesting. My question is why Rolex chooses to use such a fiendishly difficult method of regulation when most movements have a simple screw or lever? Must be an advantage to it.
