Hi I've just acquired a Seiko 7T94 0BS0 Quartz Chronograph for clean up and restoration. It is scratched and filthy but otherwise fully functional. It has a black coated bezel into which the crystal is embedded. There is a tachymeter chapter ring under the crystal sandwiched between the crystal and the body of the watch. I assumed I'd be able to prise off the bezel to release the chapter ring to allow me to clean and polish the case. The I can't seem to remove the bezel.. but the chapter ring is slightly loose. I'm uncertain if that is how it was when I received the watch. I think it's held in place by the movement. If that bezel is removable I'd like to get it off so I can thoroughly clean and polish the case... and touch up or re-coat the bezel. I'm at a bit of a loss. I can't see a way of pushing it out from the inside as the channels for the pushers and stem intrude into the watch body. Photos below. Thanks in advance. James.
