1016 winding issue
Have not worn my 1016 in a few weeks, went to wind it up and after maybe 30 turns, got a lot of resistance - didn't want to wind anymore. Is this normal for an older Rolex, or could it be a movement issue?

Definitely isn't normal. I would get it serviced if you haven't had it done in a while.

I had a similar issue on my GMT where the self winding mechanism was not disengaging when Wound with the Crown.I could feel a slight whirring through the case back when resistance was felt on the Crown.

Dont trust anyone not authorised by Rolex but get your vintage needs in writing by RSC or it will be a disaster |

Update - so went to wind again after leaving it overnight, winded fine, but only gave it a few turns. Definitely odd and have contacted the person who serviced it - hopefully can get resolved soon.
