This is great info thanks for sharing!
Any chance you have any ideas on what is going on with Tudor's GMT movement with all of the date issues? |

Yes, my 126710 BLRO is at the Dallas RSC right now because of the same issue; amplitude dropped below 200 degrees after sitting 24 hours. As part of the service, do you replace the second wheel, or just lubricate it and reinstall? Thank you for posting. I can see there are numerous differences between this movement and the 31xx series. -Sheldon

Awesome pictures, thank you for posting them.
I have a very early 126600 (June 2017) with that movement, would you know if it is at risk of developing that lubrication issue? |

Don't worry about it, if some issue does arise then just have it fixed under warranty It is a new movement and they can always have a few issues in the beginning. |

Very cool, and much more decoration than I imagined. Thanks for the peek, Bas.

Taking a look at the 3235
Thank you for the incredible shots and showing the breakdown. It gives those of us who don’t get to see the inner workings of such a precision piece and allows us to appreciate it even more. Look forward to more of your posts. Just to add YES!!!!! It’s nice to see a post without Basel 2019 or Basel 2020 predictions in it.

This issue was already mentioned by another watchmaker on the forums. And there are plenty of people who've had to send their watch in for service, due to this problem.

Sigh, if only Rolex would install exhibition casebacks as an option.

Great! We can look forward to the 3235 Russian roulette. Why don’t Rolex carry out some form of recall if it’s a known problem? My DJ41 is a late 2018 model - I hope I’m all good. I guess the whole warranty cover for this issue depends on if it’s presents itself within the first 5 years of ownership. I guess that’s dependent on the amount of time you wear it within that time. I got mine 6 months ago but have only really worn it for the first time properly, today. |
