·How do you remove the crown stem on a 1325/1320???
I have been looking all over the web for what should be a easy question but I cannot find a service manual anywhere. I just picked up a 1973 De Ville 196.0028 with a 1325 movement. Amazingly a new battery brought it to life and it is keeping good time so far. I would like to remove the movement so I can do a really good ultrasonic case cleaning. For the life of me I cannot figure it out. There is no obvious lever.
I do not want to disassemble a 50-year old, working quartz if I do not have to but I am thinking the stem lever must be under the circuit module. Before disassembling, I wanted to check if anyone here knows how to do it.
Thanks in advance. I will add some photos this evening.
