I am unsure how to release the winder from my vintage Omega Constellation.

It passes through the case and the blue & white lines lead to what appears to be

securing screws. The red line goes to what may be a push button type release.

I wish to remove the movement and clean the inner glass.

Is it none of these coloured options?

 

Thank you.

Pull the crown out one stop. Does the head of the screw with the blue line move at all? If so, that's the one you need to loosen (only 1 or 2 turns). You might have to push it down as well.

Hi Yes It has 712 marked on the movement. i have managed to release the winder. I have taken out 2 of the retaining screws around the edges and am looking for more as the movement still seems tightly fitted to the casing.

 

Thank you.

It's hard to tell from the pictures but I think the movement ring actually comes out. The words remove the gasket and see if there's an actual ring that comes out holding the movement in place.
