To release the stem you loosen the lower one of the two screws by the stem.
I attache a service manual to the 72 but unfortunately with the wrong complication but in the 60's the tech sheets didn't always be the best.  ;) 
If you need more help it's better to continue in an other thread.

Nivada:  The 30 mm mvt. is out of the case and stem "set in place".   you might notice,  i had to remove one of the levers to get a straight shot at the secont case screw.   i'll replace it and move on to cleaning.  vin

    steping back from a complicated mvmt. repair;  i opened  a 1950's west clock wrist watch.  German made case and US mvmt..  it has a very unique stem set lever.  one of the 4 scews holding the back plate holds a lever attached to the stem set pin.  vin.
