First of all is it acrylic or glass? It looks acrylic in the pic but you can get domed glass too. If is acrylic then you should be able to use the crystal lift to remove it but you will need to remove the bezel first. If it is glass then you will need to push it out from the inside, and when you replace it you will also need a new crystal gasket. You will need a crystal press to install the new glass crystal, and for some of the tension ring acrylics too. You should also test the water resistance before taking it under water; it's rated to 30 atmospheres which is quite a high spec. Of course if you don't go swimming with it this is less of an issue and only of relevance in respect to originality. Mark has a couple of videos on replacing crystals on his YouTube channel which are well worth a look. Why are you replacing it? It looks to be in quite good order in the pic. If it just needs a spruce up the Solvol Autosol, Polywatch, or even toothpaste will do the trick. It's a good idea to remove the bezel first so that you don't end up with polish in impossible to clean crevices. If the watch is still water tight then it may be better to leave it undisturbed.

Thanks for the replies. At least its confirmation that I'm not getting stuck on a trivial/easily solvable issue. I had no idea Ofrei had shipping issues, I'm waiting on a second delivery from them right now. You have to pay through the nose for the international postage, but I take that as just part of the deal with hunting around for specific parts. I agree that wedging the movement in is an awkward aspect of the case, but I like the fact that there's no wasted space in there. The crown came with the case. The Ofrei website is generally tough to navigate, I'm constantly finding new pages and parts I've not seen before. A quick Google just threw up http://www.ofrei.com/page523.html which may list a suitable crown individually.
