You may have been visited by a ghost that misses their watch?

No, never the crowns.
However I find one of the Rolex boxes opens itself at night! Maybe yawning? |

Mischievous Cornish Piskes on holiday in the USA.
I know that they move the rugs that you have just just squared up on the floor as soon as your back is turned so unscrewing the crown on your watch is a simple task for these little blighters. Or of course it is just you losing the plot and you have just taken the first step towards the care home for paranoid Rolex watch owners.

Never , seen or heard of this, the movement can’t screw or unscrew the crown. I’m sure you thought you did and didn’t. It’s happened to me before not a problem unless it goes in the water.
We are all just getting older and forget! Cheers |

I always thought one had to pay extra for the self-unscrewing function:-)

This has never happened to me before, I also experienced that the crown was unscrewed. The only difference is that unlike you, I did not notice this when I put it on, so the movement get damaged. This means, I should take it to the service. However, since they are full of work, because this will be the busiest period for them, I will still miss my watch in the first quarter of 2025.

In the OP's defense, last night, I was opening a bottle of champagne and in the second between when I removed the cage and went to put my hand on the cork, it shot up to the ceiling and champagne spilled everywhere. Maybe the movement was carbonated?

May be time to dust off the arc welding tool.
