Hi All

This is a new one for me.  Wyler Incaflex Navigator watch - I managed to get the case back off after a bit of treatment and scratching (literally) around, only to be confronted with a secondary case cover. Now I am unaware of the next step. The secondary cover is brass as opposed to the stainless primary cover.

Can someone tell me whether this is a front load or is the cover supposed to pop off too.  Other refurb videos I have seen - this secondary cover is a loose fit.  There is corrosion/gunk around the seal so I am treating that too - but I don't want to force it.

 

Any help would be appreciated - Pics below:

Crisis averted!  I managed to find a video from 2014 on YouTube which had a similar watch.  The (plastic) bezel pops off and the movement came out the front!  and... tada... it started running! Unbelievable.  The movement looks good too.  I do need a crown, which has a pocket watch style crown  which goes into a slot on the stem.  The crown is missing - so that's the next challenge!
