I have been collecting and fixing watches for quite some time now.  I really enjoy watching these videos to compare techniques and learn new ones.  Recently I acquired an Omega Speedmaster dark side of the moon watch.  I would like to adjust the timing a little, but have some trepidation about the Zirconium oxide case. Since they are brittle I know that care will be needed to do this.  There are no slots for opening tools, just a slight recess in the back cover at the 9:00 position. Probably it is pressure fit with an o-ring.  That’s what it appears from the only cross-section picture I can find.  Thinking that maybe a Delrin tool tip or something similar would be needed.  Does anyone have any prior knowledge or experience with these cases?
