I bought this in a flea market in Budapest, liked it because it 'seems' complete, original glass crystal/dial and a rather nice niello case. Unsigned but it's marked Swiss. My problem lies with getting the mvmnt out of the case have taken out retaining screws and the winder but the mvmnt will not budge, it turns a little in both directions ( about 15 deg) can anyone help with how I go about this dont want to 'push' from the face side for obvious reasons
Help!!!!!
By the way in keeps good time but always stoips at 14:53 or 7 minutes to 3 in old money
Have attached some pics cos I know they always help

Hi Terry, Try this, you will need to take the front bezel off (snap or screw off) and then the movement should slide out thru the front. Let us know if you need anything else.

Remove the front bezel and push gently from movement side.

Many thanks Chris and Leon, just a gentle 'push' and Bobs your uncle, came out perfectly. Appreciate your guidance

BEST
