If Rolex does the repair, don't they usually want to replace the crown, stem and the tube? For an older watch that sounds like cheap insurance.

It doesn't look like it broke off, just fell out. I can't remember if on a Rolex it is held in with a locking pin or a screw? Either way it should be a 5 minute fix if nothing else is going on.

I agree, the stem doesn't look broken. Perhaps the screw that holds it in has backed out or failed?

Huh??? How can you make this type of comment? It snapped off plain as day, any number of things could have happened once this piece snapped off, little bits of metal shaving cold have ended up in the movement, and this if not taken care of will cause irreparable damage. We spend so much money on this hobby and I wonder why some people would want to cut corners and try to save money on service. Hell, maybe I should just open it up and try to fix it myself
