MB Timewalker Auto Crystal/Mvmt remove?

[spookycord]

So I'm getting crystals ready to send to chief and one piece is a mont blanc automatic. after openning the case back, it's pretty obvious the crystal is not coming out that way. It's somehow gotta come from the front. I thought it would be something like my portuguese which has the movement/dial dropping out front too, but there were no screws holding in the front 'bezel'. There is definitely a lip and a groove on the MBTW. Could the front twist off? I don't want to try anything with too much force, before asking if anyone knows How do you remove crystal/drop out the movement of a MBTW? Tried the duct tape, but didnt work... so far
