    Hi. Can anyone tell me how I can release the stem? It's a Parnis big pilot with date at 6 o'clock.

    I just can't see whe it would be?

    Thanks

    Now I could be wrong and likely am, but I think it's that doodaa where my arrow is pointing.

    It looks similar to a Seiko quartz movement I fiddled with before. IIRC you press that tiny nub/button and gently pull on the stem and out it pops.

    As I say I think that's it. Better counsel might be worth waiting for.

    Rejoice in the awareness of feeling stupid, for that’s how you end up learning new things. If you’re not aware you’re stupid, you probably are.

    Thanks. No unfortunately I don't think that's it. I think it's just some kind of stop. It moves when the crown is pulled and pushed back.

    I also tried that little indent but it stops the crown from moving, it doesn't release it. It disappears when the crown is fully pulled out.

    As it did on the movement I worked on, that's why I thought it might be the part involved. The fact that it's been specifically exposed where it doesn't have to be also makes me think the stem removal is likely something to do with it. It might require pushing when the stem is either out or in if you know what I mean?

    I just edited my post so I'm not sure which one your talking about? Are you talking about your initial post? The little stopper nub thing?

    It does t release the stem in any position.

    I just tried it now again at the location of the big arrow, more on the edge and it worked. :D
