Watch Part V

Actually bro. The 3186 issue is overblown. The issue is just a small thin piece of metal that was overestimated by Rolex to be sufficiently hardy enough.

 

All any servicing technician has to do, is to replace that thin metal spring that breaks easily, with an updated stronger, thicker one from Rolex, and the movement should be good to go from then on without any breakdown. There is plenty of technical literature on the internet regarding solving this issue.

 

It would be a huge pity to allow a small and uncharacteristic material design flaw by Rolex to write off what is otherwise an excellent and reliable watch.

 

Watches with the calibres 3186 and 3187 from serial year 2014 onwards would have this piece of metal replaced by a thicker, hardier piece at the factory. So if your watch was made in or after 2014, you would be ok.

I brought it to Rolex who fixed it for free.

But they refused to answer my question if it has been upgraded

Instead they choose to confirm that its the same exact part, no upgardes whatsoever.

 

So since i was a bit sick of the supercase, i just got rid of it.

No regrets whatsoever.

 

Fancy you telling me to give Rolex a chance

Muayhahahah
