Noob question
Forgive my ignorance on the matter...I'm a recent first-time owner of a Rolex. My question is simple - does my 1957 Oyster Perpetual datejust have a battery? I'm thinking it doesn't but I'm getting mixed opinions from various sources. My brother in law, who owns 3 different models, says it does. Please set me straight on the matter!
TIA |

Oyster quartz and fake models have batteries. Otherwise, no! The one in pic definitely shouldn't have a battery.

Perpetual means auto wind!
