CAUTION
Please note that the machine screws are very sensitive to temperature change and experience expansion and contraction as a result.
Torque your screws to 2.75 ft lbs as recommended in the Rolex Watchfitter Guide.
This torque value changes according to ambient temperature and the torque should be adjusted in accordance with the absolute expansion and contraction of the metal.
It is highly recommended you carry your DRSD screwdriver when you travel and adjust all screws after landing in an environment where the ambient temperature varies by 54 degrees from the environment from which you have come.
Simple attention to basic maintenance detail will ensure the integrity of your Rolex.
