Timing your watch

Has anybody considered asking their AD to check the deviation of their Rolex on a Vibrograf timing machine? you could then compare your own data averaged over a period time and then see how your wearing habits affect the accuracy of your watch.

A question for the many rolex experts on here, do you have to open the case of your watch to test it on a Vibro timing machine? Thanks guys

The only thing they do is attach the watch to the vibrograf and read the machine. Nothing has to be removed.
