I had one success (and one failure) dissolving a broken stem out of a crown with Alum. The successes was a stainless steel crown and a milder steel stem. A Tag Heuer 2000 Automatic - here with the solution at around 60ºC I could see small bubbles coming up from the stump of the stem and it took maybe 6 hours to disolve I tried to repeat this with another watch and it did nothing..... This was A Bulova Ambassador with what again looked like a stainless steel crown. -

What are your thoughts @VWatchie on adding your service marks to the inside case? I have 2 methods. The first being, if there are already engraved marks from previous services, then ill add mine engraved as well. Kind of tells a story. The other being, if I'm the first one to service it, ill use a fine point sharpie instead, so as not to be the first one to scratch it up. I do like when there are service marks, as it can kind of help me gauge how much I should be examining the movement, before I send my quote out. I found 13 on a vintage Hamilton I service recently, so that's the current high score.
