Lemania movement (Venus 175, ST19)-How to get the crown out?

[munsterh]

Hi all,

The Lemania movement (Venus 175, ST19) is quite popular in manual wound watches. The chronograph reset button of one of my watches doesnt work any more. Any thoughts?

In order to get out the movement and examine I have to release the crown - anybody experienced with this. Scared to just pull.

Let me know!

There's a release button you'll need to press in to release the crown. Follow the stem into the movement and there will be a button corresponding to the stem.
