Hi everyone, been awhile since I came on here. I purchased this watch off the reputable sales 3-4 years ago. It’s a AP 15400 replica. I love this watch. Nothing is wrong with it except I dropped this watch a few weeks ago. The hour sticker fell off in a few places, I just can’t seem to remove the stem. I had to push the dial and fix it half ass. Does anyone know how to remove the stem? And Rolex replicas there is a button you push that comes right out, but this one doesn’t have anything. Please help!!!

That looks like a decorative plate, and it is probably covering a Myota movement?

If so then remove the rotor, then remove the plate, then the spot to remove the stem will be visible.

But an easier option to access the dial to replace markers on an AP would be to just remove the caseback, and then remove the bezel/crystal, leaving the movement in the case for this job

Hi! Thanks for the info. So I removed the case back and decorative plate. And it has a few tiny screws. Once removed those screws there’s nothing showing a spot for the removal of the stem. I am truly baffled with this.

After the removal of the case back, the Outer ring before the movement had two tiny screws, they don’t do anything either. I attempted to go from the front to remove the front bezel but unable to do so…. I’m lost on what to do next.

I will try to remove the rotor and see if there is something there

Thank you SO SO MUCH! I got it removed and was able to fix the LOOSE HOUR MARKERS.

Love this forum!

Yes. It was a Myota :)

Truly appreciated gentlemen!
