In my experience,
positional regulation does not work on modern Rolex watches. I have done this experiment on a 2010 Milgauss GV and 2014 Sky-dweller, and in all positions they tend to gain 1 or 2 secs per day. [I didn't do this on more modern watches (>2015), since they run within +/- 2 sec/day spec., and in practice it is just ~1s gain in 36-48 hours. The deviation is so small that regulation doesn't matter.]
Now, the advice re cleaning is something I follow pretty much everyday. Dish soap and warm water, though I don't use brushes to avoid PCL scratches.
Cheers!

I've always been curious about this...
Except that I don't wear a single watch long enough to notice if it gains or loses time, or have the patience to test this concept.
