Of course it will.

Actually, no it won't. Rolex uses a self winding mechanical movement.


Not all Rolex use the self winding movement, some have to be wound every few
days.

Even the good fakes use automatic movements.


I've never seen one like that. Those I have come across over the years had
quartz movements.



Only the cheaper fakes would be harmed by EMP. And that's
questionable, given the steel case sheilding.
