Can anyone help? I’m trying to open the caseback of my PPF V2 5712 and I’ve seen that it’s supposed to be a counterclockwise screw but just doesn’t work and I’m afraid to break it.

Already tried rubber ball and silicone press…

Is there a tutorial on how to do this or maybe some more detailed instructions?

Thanks,

It is indeed a screwed on CB. I was able to open it with a rubber ball, ccw turning. With a bit of force though.

Had to open it to silence the micro rotor.

Thanks! Pretty much the same reason. How’s yours after silencing and what did you use?

No more „scratching“ sound, but you can still hear the ssssssst ssssst from charging the main spring. But much less noise.

I just used a bit of grease I got from Domi long time ago.
