Hi Folks, I have a invicta 11807 with a foggy crystal.
I have cleaned a few in the past but this movement is new to me and I cant see how to remove it. I already have the crown stem removed. I lift up on the movement and it can wiggle a little. I believe the outside ring needs to come out along with the movement. There are a few small screws that go around it but im afraid of damaging it. Can anyone confirm how this comes out?
Thanks in Advance

Hi  As there is only one picture of the movement which looks like a Ronda 5050 movement. There is a number on the backplate in approx the 4,Oclock position, can you confirm the number as this is the caliber number of the movement.  Can you also post a picture of the front of the watch as to remove the movemernt one may have to remove the bezel and or crystal before lifting out the movement through the front.  I have attached the tech sheet for the Ronda 5050 for your interest.     cheers

The "outside ring" is called bezel. As mentioned above by watcheweasol . The case construction is "front loader" type and it can host any movement. Search for the term here, as it's one of the most often asked question by beginners.

Screws and nuts are invariably decorative only on this class of watches. Sometime even caseback notches are.

More help needed...

Thanks, your correct. I didnt know about Front Loaders. Anyway, I did some searching but still unable to figure out how to remove the bezel. Also, I dont have a problem buying a tool if needed.
