Rolex Explorer not starting.

[Grant76]

Not a watch I wear much so don't know if I've left it too long.

Any ideas as to why it won't start?

Thanks

Have you tried putting a few turns on the hands or giving it a shake? When was it last serviced?

Yup, given it a shake. Last service was 4-5 years.

Have you actually tried winding it or maybe turning the hands 24 hours? That might kick it into gear.

Could be anything then. Id like to think the movement has just got stuck or it needs a slight winding and then wearing for a few days. Failing that im more than happy to take a look and or service it if you're happy to trust a Pher.
