My Rolex Exp 2 (16570) crown is spinning freely when in the manual wind position. It wasn’t this way before - anyone dealt with this before? I am getting a single click sound every now and then but no friction when manually winding

So the short version is it needs service.

Longer version is, it needs to be cleaned and lubricated right where the arrow is pointing. It’s a common failure of the 3135 and derivative movements. That little flappy gear slides into and out of engagement with the click wheels to enable manual winding, and once the lubrication dries out it can’t slide anymore.

Good news is it won’t hurt anything, you can wear it like that as long as you like until you get around to servicing it. You can even try whacking it hard on your palm on the 9 o clock side of the case, that might fix it temporarily. But the long term fix is just removal, cleaning, and relubrication. It’s a simple enough DIY job if you’re comfortable taking watch movements apart.

THANK YOU!!

Really appreciate your response - I was freaking out for a bit there lol.

For this model I’d recommend an independent service guy rather than sending to RSC when you get around to it.
