My Datejust isn't winding properly

[nkoussa]

Hi Techs :)

I have a 1977 Datejust. When I sleep with the watch on my wrist it stops working by the morning , that's when I first noticed a problem. The other problem is I cannot manually wind it. When crown is in the first position it doesn't move clockwise.
The other issue I noticed is that the date setup is counter clockwise instead of clockwise (on my submariner)

Any ideas ?
I wanna send it back to the dealer but I wanna have a proper knowledge before he tells me "you're using it wrong"

I'm not new to rolexes I have a submariner, and an explorer 2, none which have this issue.

The datejust is a new acquisition.

Please let me know if you have any thoughts I would appreciate it.

Don't force anything. Just tell him what you've said here, needs a service.

If you cannot manually wind it, there's a problem. Feel free to send it my way, and I'll tell you exactly what it was... ;)

Would there be a charge for that?

Let me see what the jeweler would do first and if he sends it back to me I'll definitely send it over to you.
