First- unscrew the crown. Then pull it out to the first click. In this position you can adjust date by turning the crown. When date is set, pull the crown further out (second click). This position is for time setting. Adjust the hands to desired time.
Push the crown back in and screw it on tight.
That's all.

SOURCE: I can not open the back cover of my Rolex

If the watch is working okay, and it is a self-winding model (i.e. it doesnt not have a battery which relatively few Rolexs do) then the noise you probably can hear is the self-winding mechanism.
Rolex backs are very, very difficult to remove and watch repairers have special tools to do so. As a Rolex is an offically certified chronometer, and therefore has an incrediby accurate and complex mechanism, the backs are deliberatly designed to be difficult to remove by just anybody.

SOURCE: how to shorten band on Rolex submariner

on mine I removed a couple links using a jeweler's screwdriver(flat-blade). Look for the screws in a hole along the narrow edge of the links nearest to the clasp. Use care in removing/replacing these screws, you do not want to break or strip them using excessive force. If you need to remove more than one link, take additional links from the opposite side of the clasp, so the clasp stays centered on your wrist.

THE MARKERS AND POINTERS OF MY ROLEX SUBMARINER ARE NO LONGER LUMINOUS IN THE DARK. CAN THEY BE RE-COATED? ANY IDEA OF COSTS INVOLVED

They can be re coated or replaced.The watch will need to be re sealed after so now may be a good time to service the watch as this is advised every 4/5 years.
A service will cost £275.00/£325.00 and takes 2/3 weeks at www.rolexrepairs.co.uk

I have a rolex submariner and it occaisonally vibrates. What is the problem with this.

Sounds like mainspring is not holding in place and getting undone (unrolls by itself), that what usually causes the vibration.

No action when I pull the stem out to adjust time

There may be more than one "out" position.

Typically there are three positions 1) home 2) 1st adjusting position, 3) 2nd adjusting position.

If you haven't got the instructions, you can get a download from their web site, (Rolex.com). You go to the bottom of the screen and there is a menu. Select "downloads" and you will see a list of downloads, choose yours.

How can I change the time and date on my wife's Rolex? The stem will pop out but nothing happens when I turn it either way. No change of date or time.

RECOMENDATION:

Contact a local official Rolex dealer to address the problem.

Submariner 16610 M Model has 40 seconds faster

I don't know if I can help you out, but I can tell you that even a low quality Daytona, or Submariner copy can be adjusted. My 1992 Daytona copy is at about 10 sec a month fast. I read a **** load about the movement, and did the adjustment myself. Any watch shop that tunes watches can do it.

I don't know what year your Submariner is, but today Rolex is using a new main spring (it is now blue). I would think a replacement spring would be the most you might need, but a good tune-up should do the trick. If it is real, I would think about sending it to Rolex for cleaning and a tune-up ($$$).
