I need some technical assistance

[stevemulholland3]

hey guys!,
I have worked on many cartier watches so I know a little about the ins and outs of disassembly.now I need to do a little work on my tudor.what I need to know is wich method I can use to remove the movement.on cartier's all you do is pull the winding stem out and viola' the movement comes right out-but on some watches you unscrew the crown and slide the movement out with the winding stem intact.does anyone here know these eta movements are removed?
I would appreciate any help.
cheers

Hi Steve, Tudor watches require special tooling to remove the movement. They're pictured below and are usually available at most equipment rental outlets.

Steven, unless you know exactly what you're doing, my advice is to not tamper with your Rolex. You risk voiding the guarantee (if there still is any left) and/or damaging the movement. Better let RSC or an AD watch maker do it.

Show us a picture..

This ain't rocket science....

hey thanks al,
I already used all of the special tools shown in your pics to no avail.it seems these tudors are tougher than we first suspected.if you come up with something a little tougher let me know.
and bo I appreciate your words of wisdom,but I have my mind set on doing this myself.it would make the watch that much more special to me,and yes it is a vintage 68' submariner-so I do beleive the warranty has expired.
cheers
and keep the suggestions coming!

Steve, you have a great sense of humor!

I hope someone provides you with the tech info you need.
