Though, I am a big fan of Omega (I own 7 current models), and not a big fan of Rolex (I own 0), I believe your situation is purely coincidental, and not the rule.
The Rolex is Certified Chronometer, the Omega is not. The Rolex movement is adjusted and tested outside of the case, and has a long way to go until it gets to you. I have no doubt that the Rolex could be adjusted to perform within COSC spec.
It just happened that you bought a Rolex that is performing out of spec, and an Omega that is right on the money. It's not the rule.
BTW - Congratulations on both.
