Hi guys, one of my chrono pushers has come a bit lose and I need some help with getting the movement out so I can tighten it up.

Originally I thought I'd just unscrew the case back and release the movement from the case bit it looks a bit more complicated case here.
There is a decorative plate on this movements which looks like it needs taking out first before I can remove the crown.

To do this I'll need to take the rotor out firs but can't figure out a way to do it.

I thought it would be fairly straight forward job by unscrewing what appeared to be the 3 small rotor screws but it looks like they are just fake screws and were only glued to the rotor.

So how do I rotor then? If Anyone with experience can chime in I'd much appreciate it.

Below are pictures of the rotor with the fake screw removed.

Whole center piece is probably the screw, use some tweezers you don’t like in two of the holes, hold the rotor in place and unscrew it.

It is possible this is the case but I don't really want to force it unles I'm certain it is the way to go.
Maybe someone who has had experience with it can chime in and confirm?

Flip the disk out which had the three fake screws in, it is also glued in, it's false. Once out you will see the rotor screw underneath it.

Oh, cheers @ado213 . I thought about doing this but didn't want to force until someone confirmed.
Much appreciated!
