I have never seen anyone claim an amplitude of 300 or more on a 32xx. Are you really seeing that on your others?
My two 32xx do 270-275 and 255-260, respectively, dial up, full wind. The "good" one is still over 200 degrees in vertical positions 24 hours after full wind (the only amplitude spec which Rolex has actually put out), whereas the "bad" one falls to the 180s.
If the most you can ever get out of yours is 220-240, full wind, horizontal position, then that would seem to be quite low.

Yeah it is a tad low for full wind dial up. OP really should have tested the vertical positions at the 24 hour mark.
Re the 300, I have an explorer 1 that hit 300 full wind, 270 vert not sure if you every saw my post on that in the mega thread... very rare though... and to be honest it's super erratic... I don't like it...
