It says right in your link:
"we have been alerted by our friend and industry expert Robert-Jan from Fratello Watches that, after confirmation from another internal source at Rolex, warranty will not be changed." So no. |

Oh wow. If this is true, I think it'll have some impact on the preowned market.

Lets start a new rumour:
Rolex are scrapping in-house movements in favour of base level ETA's. Their robot broke and no longer able to make in-house :(

Wonder if they got this from that Federico youtube video:
Rolex checks it this way : when you buy a Rolex watch at an AD, they photocopy the filled in green warranty card and send it to Rolex. Whenever a watch is sent under warranty, Rolex checks for that photocopy and it has to match your name. If they don’t have your card in their records and you can’t provide the original bill of sale from the AD, then you bill charged for a service (see here our ultimate watch servicing guide). As a matter of fact, Rolex warranties are now totally untransferable and Rolex is willing to check. |

That does impact resale value for a watch that's otherwise under warranty.

I can understand this and why not. It is me that has bought the watch. I am not a dealer or trying to make money from a watch, but if I was then expecting Rolex to under write my sale and protect my profit margin. Not a big issue.
