This is a genuine Rolex 2235-204 winding pinion, a Swiss‑made original component for the Rolex Caliber 2235 automatic movement. As a critical part of the keyless works, the winding pinion works with the crown and clutch wheel to transmit rotational force from manual winding or time‑setting to the movement’s gear train, ensuring proper manual winding and time‑setting functions. This original factory part is the ideal choice for restoring manual winding and setting functions when servicing the 2235 caliber.
Genuine Rolex Part – Swiss factory‑original for Caliber 2235, not a copy.
Keyless Works Core – Sits between the crown stem and clutch wheel, switching between winding and time‑setting modes.
Precision Machined – Accurate gear teeth and sliding surfaces for smooth mode switching and reliable engagement.
Essential for Service – Replace when manual winding slips, crown spins freely, setting fails, or keyless positions are vague.
Compatible Movement – Designed for Rolex Caliber 2235 automatic (ladies‘ Datejust, etc.).
