32xx movement problem poll and data thread
First post after 12.5 years; very high 3230 amplitudes, close to 300 degrees, what was the lift angle setting? This watch seems to be very healthy, worn every day!

Lift angle set at 53. I thought data may add value as I don’t suspect many have worn daily for as long of a stretch.

I think it would be interesting to measure this 3230 along the full power reserve, i.e., after 0,12,24,36,48,60 hours. |

When new, I only checked dial up at full power and not other positions (don’t ask me why) and the amplitude new was 285-292 rate +1-2
I’ll check other positions when I have some time and report back. |

Seems like that’s some encouraging data.

My DJ41 from 2018 had to go to RSC in 2021 for the mentioned issue. It’s now doing well. My 126610 from 04/22 is still running very accurate and so is my OP36. Let’s see in the near future.

My '22 124060 is at RSC being serviced for this issue right now.

power reserve only 56 hours? 3285
hello, bit of advice about my batgirl..watch is 2020 and i thought was running fine at +2 a day. Recently tested for power reserve by winding and walking for 6 miles. Thought that would put a full wind into the watch but it ran for 56 hours and not the stated 70 or so hours. Don't have access to a timegrapher unfortunately. Will repeat the test but whats the communities thoughts on this?

What does the AD or the RSC say when you bring in a piece with the issue or when you get it back? Do they say anything other than "hmm, we've seen some people have that issue" or "here you go, fixed"?

The rep asked what the issue was and I explained that I lost 8sec in ~8hrs after a full wind from a dead stop, and she put down 'power reserve' issue on my receipt
I was also told I would hear from someone explaining what was wrong with my watch in ~a week (it's been 1week today) and that it would take 6-8weeks for the service.

100% of ADs act like they’d never heard of the issue before. Same applies for the RSC personnel. |

As far as I know, none of the watch YouTubers have acknowledged the 32XX issue either, even though I'm pretty sure they are aware of the complaints, if only because I've asked several of them to comment on the issue. I assume they don't want to risk provoking the ire of Rolex.

Worn&Wound mentioned the issue in two articles about a year ago but then crickets.

It's an interesting issue about 6 mile walks. On average, a person takes about 2,000 steps to walk one mile. Therefore, for a 6-mile walk, an average male would take approximately 12,000 steps.
That means the watch gets 6,000 arm swings of about 60° per swing. Maybe a watchmaker can do the rotor math using Rolex's specs - but if 12,000 steps per day won't fully wind a mainspring, then the horology designers need some better technology (or switch to quartz and close their movement atelier).

Just went to Rolex AD to have my 126610LN checked. They said it was delaying a bit and adjusted it… let’s see how it goes. I still have 3 years left of warranty so I will monitor it

That's interesting about your AD opening up the watch for an adjustment. I hope they gave you a service statement for your files.
Why? First off, it helps you begin to document any service work to remediate performance. Since we can't see into the future, and the movement may need future interventions, you can provide proof if RSC declines warranty service to fully remedy a problem during the upcoming 3 years. Second, to prove the watch was opened only by a certified watchmaker at an AD. Without that you don't have proof some donk didn't do the work. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

You make a point. I have not received any proof of service. My AD is a Rolex Only AD. It does service on watches onsite so I am not too concerned. I believe everything is logged on their system.
Edit: I have looked on my basic iPhone timegrapher and it now is in the 0.5s accuracy per day but with a 230 amplitude |
