Spotted! Rolex 33xx test movement! Better than the 32xx

My sources came through at the factory. Looks good!

“We believe this is will be a huge improvement worthy of what Rolex is known for. Reliability, Robustness, and Clockwiseness. We now move past the Kaput era of the 32xx.”

My lack of understanding/comprehension as I stare at that photo is embarrassing.

It’s perfection and a smart company will leave it well alone, is really all that matters.

It is not April 1st, so a bit confused. No Parachrom hairspring, no Paraflex shock system?

Looks like a 31xx.

Oh, my, is this a problem if it were? Cant imagine why the Crown would simply dip into the parts bin and and we can all let bygones be bygones.

If it is that is.

Omega have dipped into the parts bin and it's worked for them.
Especially with the 321 and the story of how they resurrected it.
Just add a bit of fau patina with the lume colour and Rolex will be on their way
