Breitling hold better time than Rolex

Is this normal for most people? The two Breitlings that I have, hold a lot better time than the Rolex watches I've seen (mine and other family members).

What are the differences that make this happen or is it just luck of the draw?

luck of the draw.. both are tested and meant to be within the same spec -4 +6 seconds per 24 hour period.
So so breilting could be +2 sec a day and rolex could be -4 per day technically... or vice versa

Breitling and Rolex are both quality watches. Which is more accurate will vary.

For me my Zenith El Primero is this most accurate. My Rolex and Breitling are neck to neck.

That's how it is with any brand. I own a Steinhart which is +2, a Sinn which is +2 and an Omega PO XL that's -2.
