Rolex oyster perpetual datejust time/date setting instructions

The simplest way to find out is to take it to a Rolex specialist repairer and ask them to look at it. They will know what small clues to look for to find out. Some of the clues could be inside the watch on the inside mechanism so a watch repairer will have the tools to open it correctly.

That number does correspond with a genuine Rolex. Stop Ina watch repair store where they actually do the work. I have not seen a knock off with a serial numbers or model number stamped between the case lugs.
Hope this helps.

Hello. Go directly to the Rolex homepage http://www.rolex.com/en#/home/

That way you will know if the watch is still available new. If that doesn't help, go to ebay. J.

Unscrew the crown and then pull the crown out to the second click and turn. When done push the crown back in and screw the crown back down.

It is very important to screw the crown back down. If this is not done the watch is NOT water resistant.

Hope this helps.

Depending on how old the watch is, It may be quick set or older models are not quick set. In older models you need to unscrew the crown, pull out the crown and rotate the crown to set the time, and in order to set the date rotate the hour hand past 12 twice in order for the date to change. Set the date first and then set the hour and min. For quick set models unscrew the crown and pull it out to the fist click this position you can "quickly" set the date by rotating the crown. Set the date and then pull out the crown to the second position out. Rotate the crown to set the hour and min. Then push the crown back in and screw it down.

There are two positions for the setting crown all the way out is to set time,one click out to set date.To set the date you must first set the time by moving the hands around clockwise until you see the date change(midnight) then continue around to the correct time.Then push crown in on click and set the date
