Rolex does not communicate by e-mail. You can find their address on the "Net though, and send them a nice letter.

Hello everyone I am new here, my question is does Rolex store information about watches they made or can I get some details of my old Rolex from them?

MonBK · 21 February 2017, 08:07 AM

You can get it here on TRF.

Just post some info about your watch along with a picture.

Andrew9696 · 21 February 2017, 08:15 AM

Not a chance.

Its a model 3265 from the late 1940s im guessing. What information would you like?

natosub · 21 February 2017, 09:03 AM

I don't believe so. Rolex does not offer the same research services that some other brands do.

R.W.T. · 21 February 2017, 02:00 PM

As I said either late 1930's or very VERY early 1940's.

As you can see the calibre 700 movement is 17 jewel but the cap jewel for the upper escape wheel is using a bezel that utilizes a single screw that is installed from the bottom of the train bridge. This was abandoned VERY early in the 1940's for the easier to manage 2 screw type that works from the top of the bridge.

The balance is a Super Balance as stated on the ratchet wheel...BUT if I make out in the photo correctly it is the SOLID ARM super balance...not the split arm version. The solid arm balance was also abandoned for the newer style right around 1940.

Thanks everyone for the coments. Can someone tell any more information about it (it would be great)? And it still working but I cant set the time, can anyone tell what could be the problem, should I sent to Rolex or any sugestion how I can fix it or where to send it. It wasn t pulled up for 25 years until I found it 2 weaks ago.

R.W.T. · 22 February 2017, 05:50 AM

Pull the winding stem out one click...then you can set the hands.

Andrew9696 · 22 February 2017, 06:29 AM

Yes that is not working, I cant pull it out and I dont want to force it, any sugestion whats the problem?

R.W.T. · 22 February 2017, 06:21 PM

You might try rocking it back and forth slightly...to see if some remnant of dried up lubricant can be coaxed on to the portion of the set bridge...it's either rusty or dry or both. It needs to be serviced.

Does it wind and run?

Andrew9696 · 22 February 2017, 08:53 PM

Yes its runing properli "just" cant set the time.
