How to remove the cal. 266 from this Geneve Jumbo 2748

tmw57 · Nov 12, 2021

A recent fleabay purchase..

Want to remove the movement. After removing the two case screws and stem, movement is still held tight to the case.

What am I missing here?

TIA

This comes out through the front I think. You will need to remove bezel/crystal.

Sure would like to see the face of your Omega Geneve Jumbo.

Here ya' go. An impulsive fleabay purchase. Case and movement look pretty good. Dial probably oil stained so tough to clean. But not too bad in the flesh, so may hang on to it.

It was heavy tobacco smoke staining on the dial. I didn't take the hands off when cleaning up the dial, so it may be possible to work on that center area.
