Datejust issue

Hello,

My Father’s Datejust will not wind. The second hand will not move after winding and when doing the “swirling” motion with the case the second hand moves counter clockwise?? Any idea what is wrong? I plan on sending it to an independent or RSC, but just wanted the opinion of the forum first...

Thanks,

Jorge

But I'd only use those with a good reputation and a Rolex parts account.

However, I'm biased and would always go RSC, unless you want bracelet restoration work done as well.
