Nope, the screws are there. Unfortunately that inner part is pressfit into the rotor. Remove the three screws and that will allow the rotor bearing off and you can try to press it back into the rotor. Good luck

Interesting.. I can press fit in but any kind of hard shake the rotor comes right off... do you think this is fixable by a watchsmith?

The rotor will not stay with the bearing anymore, this is a common problem with modified rotor. In your case since this is a closed caseback watch, just buy a 9015 rotor online or anywhere else and just screw it back in. Done.

no way you can tighten it. Its supposed friction fit and now yours does not stay in anymore.

Thanks man. So I am not missing any screws right?? I mean for mean time I don't mind using the watch manual wind but I am concerned if any missing screws are lodged up somewhere I can't see...

Hahahahahahaha! Oh you are funny guy! Actually I was kind of serious, but this is a different problem I think. The one I just bought from you looks like the screw is just missing.

Good thing I read this comment. I just sold a watch with a minor rotor issue. I'm gonna fix it for the buyer with your suggestion before I send it.
