Has anyone ever timed a rolex?

Have you ever calibrated a Rolex movmt without using a timing machine?

Best regards,

I've done that for some vintage watches with a snap-back case back and a simple regulator lever, but I don't have the case back removal tools for an Oyster. Chronometer watches, furthermore, need a more complex adjustment that I leave to my watchmaker, and he has a timing machine in any case. If you don't have a local watchmaker, you should find one.
