Well Omega didn't exactly rush, they took 10 years to develop the Cal 8500, point is, the 3135 does have problems, and does have inferior specifications to nearly every new movement coming onto the market. If they want to be known 10 years as that maker that charges premium prices for 30 year old movements with dodgy winding mechanisms, that's a pretty good way to go about it.
