Bottom line is, no matter how anally retentive one may think it is, Rolex sell the watches on a -2/+2 basis and if its outwith those specs the wearer has an absolute legal right to send it back under warranty.
I think we also need to remember that many who are new to Rolex may also be new to automatic movements and +5 seconds per day without the understanding of what's happening inside that case is poor when compared to what they may be used to with a quartz watch.
+5, for example, is nothing in real terms (as Peter likes to post) but its less than half as "accurate" as Rolex say it should be.
Its all relative to expectations  |
Agreed.
I'm still wondering if Rolex just rolled the dice on this as a sales mkting strategy to combat Omega. Figuring even if they get like 5% of SS or sport model owners complaining, the related sales and press benefits are worth it.
Besides, there' aren't many SS or sport to sell... So, maybe there's only like 5 in for service worldwide
