The rotor blocks access to one of the fixing screws. Any advice on how to get the rotor off the movement please.

Is this the Aqua Terra Spectre version of it? Oddly there are two 8507s, one in the Skyfall PO but I think the Aqua Terra is the one with the restrictive rotor design. From memory the spiral openings are asymmetrical and some of them are larger and give more access than others so that might be the answer, just rotate to one of the more accessible spiral gaps.

Hi,
It's the seamaster 007 co axel.
The spiral rotor arm obstructs one screw there seems no way of removing it!

You just turn the rotor so the screws can be accessed individually. Omega's instructions for this literally state that...

"Disassemble and assemble the 3 screws of the automatic module (position the oscillating weight to allow access to the screws)."

Thanks for that however, one screw is obstructed in whatever position the rotor is placed!

If the screw you are trying to remove cannot be removed by turning the rotor, it is likely not a screw for removing the automatic winding...
