RickFlorida Posted November 29, 2015 Report Share Posted November 29, 2015 I have this 2824-2 with a marathon dial. I want to remove the dial so I can use the movement for a Tudor project.I don't understand how to remove the dial. I heard some 2824-2's use a hinge system as opposed to screws. Can anyone please tell from the photos which this is using and how do I remove the dial? I want to check before I attempt so I don't damage anything.Thank youThank you!

GenTLe Posted November 29, 2015 Report Share Posted November 29, 2015 First remove the rotor: never take a movement out from the case with the rotor on...Then to remove the dial you have to release the 2 hooks that keep the dial feet there:I normally use a 1.2mm screwdriver.

RickFlorida Posted November 29, 2015 Author Report Share Posted November 29, 2015 Ahhh. Thanks. Why is it bad to not remove the rotor first? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GenTLe Posted November 29, 2015 Report Share Posted November 29, 2015 Ahhh. Thanks. Why is it bad to not remove the rotor first?Because the movement become slippery with that part on, much easier to fall, and also you can't operate on it well if that part is still on. In the end it is just a screw... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
