126300 with 3235

[madmax21]

I just bought a 126300 with the 3235 movement for many reasons went straight to my safety deposit box one a which it's a wedding gift that I will receive next year from my wife and second do the covid-19I've heard that they've had issues with grinding noises from the new Rotor Bearings on the 3285 movement.

I really didn't have that great of I look or feel in detail on my new watch. When I picked up from my local AD it went Straight To The Bank should I be concerned unfortunately the bank where it's in my safety deposit box is closed because of this covid-19 any suggestions?

There are litterally no issues with the ball bearing, there is only one issue with the 32×× and that is the seconds pinion wearing to shreds.

They do make more noise than a rotor axle type though.

You should not be concerned by what you hear on the net,fact all ball-bearing winding rotors depending on your hearing will sound a bit more noisy that the sleeve type rotor in the 31 movements.

1-2 years usually.

I will definitely keep an eye on this when I get to watch back out

And is that a design flaw or due to improper lubrication from the factory as you mentioned in a previous thread? I think this is the part you were referring to being found dry or nearly so and needing lubrication in several early examples.

In 3135 I trust.Have a few with 3135 and they just keep on ticking, very accurately.

3235 ,dont like the coarseness of winding .Just does not feel as smooth as a 3135.
