Uncasing a IWC Portuguese chrono

[mjywatchguy]

Does anyone know how to get the movement (A7750) out of an IWC Portuguese Chrono? I opened up the caseback, removed the stem, movement screws (2), the movement did not come out. Then I removed the 4 screws around the outer edge of the case, still the movement was in there. Does anyone have any tips? It is my first time removing a chrono movement, are the pushers holding the movement in? Please help, since this watch is dead, i wanted to try the graphite repair myself.

Thanks,

MJY

Not sure, but I think I remember reading that on this one (or some versions of this one), the dial & movement have to come out the front of the case by popping off the bezel. Better try doing a search for that article or wait until someone that really knows can confirm.

Anyone have the info?
