BTW: Another CW21 chimed in on the 32xx issues: from his experience, creeping oils
sticking to the bearings have been the culprit ALONG with owners exceeding a 9-10 year service interval. Rolex has stated this factor in the factory training sessions
for AD watchmakers. The customer is NOT always right...
He's wrong. The 32xx hasn't been out long enough for failures caused by owners exceeding 9-10 year service intervals. It was introduced in 2015.

The oldest 32** movements are only 8 years old so it would be impossible for owners of 32xx to have exceed 9-10 year service intervals.
