Icon20 Hi all from Norfolk UK

Hi everyone, complete newbie here and I've recently been handed down a Rolex Oysterdate which I believe may be from 1939. It's a manual windup mechanism however it's currently not even moving. Could anyone give me some recommendations on where's best to look at having it repaired ? I'd ideally like to keep it as original as possible as it's extremely sentimental.

Thanks for any help !

Lewis.

Welcome Lewis, you might want to ask about repairs in the vintage section.
