I fixed my 251 with this problem by picking it out and reseating it so it was level. Very easy to pop out just wiggle a little screw driver in there. I re-set mine with strong loctite.

 

If it wont hold because it stays depressed, try working some lube in with a toothpick.

Nope :( no wiggle in the world will bring that thing up again :( tried to oil it and also tried to clean it... Nothing :( looks like its been pressed in a little crocked.. And when I released the pin the pusher only moved in one direction.. So I have to get some spring bars I guess :( Damnit I'm out of luck this time.. Three watches lying around with bigger or smaller issues :(

Oh, sorry, i meant wiggle it out from underneath (screwdriver in the lughole so you can press the whole button and retainer out from the underside), and then reglue it back in.
