The movement of my Datejust of 1989 does not allow me to give manual rope. It is started if I move it.
What might happen to you?

Do you mean a manual wind?

That is what I assume he is saying. I don't understand why people post movement problems sometimes. I mean it has to be taken to a watchmaker.

Service time!

The movement is 3135. It does not load with the crown

It would be very unusual that it would not wind with the crown.

Perhaps it is winding but does not start ticking instantly, which is normal. When winding there is no indication that it is wound or not, and the crown will always turn and not stop like a manual wind watch.

Normal. Sometimes movement is needed to start a watch. Nothing to worry about.

No:llorando:

You should be able to wind it with the crown.
It sounds like you may need a service.

Send it in for a service and the rope will work again.

Lets hope so as replacement Rolex rope is probably expensive.

I need to speak to my AD, my Sub didn't come with a rope.

Rolex rope is no laughing matter. And this is a great answer to the OP's question, "What might happen to you?".......
