Stem release button pressed too far...maybe?

Happy Sunday, everyone!

Working with a Deep Sea Sea Dweller. An indice came loose. Got it glued back on, went to put everything back together, and had difficulty inserting stem. I thought maybe I needed to depress the release key, and I think I pushed it in too far.

Before I search out a tutorial on how to take it apart, I thought I would check in and see if there was a quick tip to reset it. It's like the set lever is out of place. Stem will go in, but won't stay in.

I got into the works on another piece, lost a spring and the watch was junked. Hoping not to make junk of this one.

Thanks.

I am so stoked! Some research and blurry videos, and got those works sorted. Yeah!
