I think the crown falls off.
Try it. :twisted:
Reminds me of Dougal in Father Ted in the cockpit of that plane.
The button that said "don not press". Sadly too tempting for
old Dougal as this would be for me... :lol:
It is the leap year date regulation screw. A quarter turn to the right once every four years and you are good to go.
I think you are corrct Walt.Originally Posted by Qatar-wol

It's cunning marketing by Bell & Ross knowing that most people will tamper with it and then be charged for a very expensive repair! Certainly in my case if it was mine I'd have it out in a second and then regret it for weeks.

I think it hold the case together.
It is a front loader.
With front loaders, there alway is some trick to getting the stem out, the little silver dots on the back of Marathons, split stems, etc...
If that is powered by what I think it is, you would be in a heap of trouble if you loosen that screw!
If I remember correctly, aren't there meant to be hex bolts on the corners of the caseback?
On that model there are flat head screws on the front.
Aha, so that's where they went! Otherwise I was wondering how you'd secure the entire bezel-caseback assembly with just one little screw...(I guess the 'do not unscrew' would be really appropriate then :P )Originally Posted by lysanderxiii
I's love to see a pic of the movement as well :evil: .
It should be a regular ETA, but B&R are bloody secretive about it.
Is that why there is a warning sign with that little screw :lol: .

Got a new watch, divers watch it is, had to drown the bastard to get it!

I'd hate to be with you when you're on your own.
ahhhhh
he must be speaking about big bertha :lol:
The stem comes out. Then when you go to stick it back in, the clutch slips out from under the clutch lever, as it is prone to do with modern ETAs.Originally Posted by Ari
Then the hands and dial have to come off to fix it. :banghead:

lysanderxiii - you sound as if you gave in to temptation there and unscrewed one. True? :shock:
