Kissing 4

As noted above, pics are needed. If this is true then it would be very unusual indeed. I doubt Rolex has kissing 4 inserts lying around to use for repairs so it could be that Rolex mixed up your insert with someone else's. Some poor guy is going to get quite a shock when he sees his newly serviced 5512/3.
