    Of course every mass produced item will suffer in QC control...except when you realize that watches chilling around $400-1000 a producing products near/at/above the quality of what a $10,000 Rolex is doing. On top of the artificial shortage that Rolex themselves are creating. The issues with Rolex QC is simply unacceptable. But morons seem to be ok getting bent over by this company.

    I agree, the QC at Rolex has fallen. I owned a 2007 16710 GMT Pepsi from new. That watch had a few small issues from new which I wasn’t too concerned about. I sold it at a considerable profit and replaced it with a MK2 214270 which amongst others had the following issues; misaligned rehaut, lume misplaced at 3 o clock and winding crown which would not sit flush on the case when fully tightened. I’ve been around several Rolex in addition to these and they need to up their game, reputation will only last so long if faults become commonplace.

I have in my collection a JLC Hometime Reverso, when you wind as you did with your Batman it makes the same noise. As loud? Not quite sure. I, myself do not mind it. That's just me, at the price point I can understand your dislike for that grinding sound! Keep the videos coming when you can!!!

    "you'll get your money back" 1. You might in 2020 ... you never know about 2021 and beyond. Rolex prices are way out of proportion ATM and situations like this usually don't last forever. 2. Value retention is the wrong reason to buy any luxury item. It's a nice bonus, but generally speaking I'd say: Buy what you like ... what you love ... what fills you with joy when you look at it. Otherwise you might as well buy a few bars of gold and put them in a safe. Probably the smarter choice if value retention is paramount for you. And yes: I just broke out an 8x loupe to look at the red GMT-hand on my watch and the paint is perfect. Kinda embarrassing for Rolex when you consider it's a Steinhart 39 Vintage GMT for which I paid €750 on a J-style bracelet ... not €10,000+.

    Just came across your channel and like the watch chatter and the unvarnished opinion, well done. Two thoughts, the bezels on the GMT and sub can’t be compared. One is unidirectional for diving where for safety sake it it goes in one direction and the crispness with no give or ‘play’ is of an exceptional functional quality. The bidirectional aspect of the GMT has a very different purpose. One can say a lot about Rolex either way but at the core they are tool watches and therefore don’t ignore the different purposes in order to give us a common tactile bezel experience. The same can be said for those who want a flip lock on a datejust or skydweller. Of course it is a safer clasp but is not in keeping with the tool design element. Does a watch need a flip lock if it’s only worn in non tool or sport situations and is not designed with those situations in mind? Now, I realize that if ‘tool’ is Rolex’s first consideration then “why the ‘gold’ variations?” I can’t get past that as well. Anyway, good video and look forward to watching more of your work.

If I'd paid 8k with that shoddy paint job, I would be returning it back to rolex , asking for my money back. Shocking quality control. At the prices rolex charge , every watch should leave their factory perfect.

    Well may not be Rolex but it's sister brand, just had to put my Tudor GMT in due to a date issue with the movement. Even my £60 Parnis GMT can manage to not skip a day and a half after 2 years of use, let alone 4 months. Not what i would exspect from a 2.6K watch 🙄.

    I heard about the noisy rotor on another channel with the 3285 Chronergy movement. I could never hear the rotor on the 3186 in my 116719BLRO. White Gold has the advantage you can wear it unnoticed, as I did mine all the time.

    Not only QC issues apparently. Outright design shenanigans too if we judge from comments on forums. Day Date not changing date and/or day. 3285 with date issue too. 3235 with accuracy issue due to lack of lubrication. I have to say though that my pieces work perfectly (YM 116622, SD43). Touch wood. Not planning on buying another Rolex in the foreseeable future. I'm more interested in other brands.
