Should you attempt to repair your own Rolex watch at home?
And here is how I responded: overhauling a Rolex 3135 movement caliber involves disassembling the movement, cleaning and inspecting each part, replacing any worn or damaged parts, lubricating the movement, and reassembling it. It is a very detailed process and requires knowledge of watchmaking and the specific movement in question. It also requires specialized tools and equipment. I recommend consulting a professional watchmaker to overhaul such movement as the Rolex 3235 caliber or the 3135.


Should you watch YouTube videos about repairing Rolex watches or learn the old fashion way?
If you still want to learn more, I suggest physical books with instructions on how watches work and how they work rather than watching the videos on YouTube that show the overhaul process from A to Z. Why? He asked, well, because ever since people started repairing their watches, such as a Rolex Submariner, we got swamped with broken watches, damaged by the owners as they have attempted the surgical procedure on their beloved timepiece.

My advice if you still insist on repairing your own Rolex watch at home
Hit the books, this will ensure you understand the process, have access to the right tools and resources, and are familiar with the specific movement. Doing a repair on your own is possible, but it can be difficult and time-consuming if you don’t have the proper knowledge or equipment. It’s always best to consult an expert in these matters to guarantee success!
