This is just priceless!

In Response To: Tool 107 , Crown & movement removal ()

Hello Steve,

What a great posting!

I am a novice when it comes to analogue watches as my background is digital lcd watches.

With a digital watch the movement is always very easy to access via the caseback and there are not usually crowns or crystals that need removing first. So your listing is priceless - as an example although I have a Tool 107 I didn't realise that you used the same tool to replace the crystal. I tried to do it with a press resulting in a smashed crystal and a bill for a replacement one plus fitting. The information is all probably obvious to you experienced guys out there but great for us novices willing to have a go. So a big thank you for taking the time to help the new kids on the block.

Best regards, Jack

How do I remove a Dynamic movement?

It should just "pull" out.
