How do you remove the glass of the quartz watch

[NT86]

Hi All,

I have a quartz watch here from emporia Armani and the internal movement is spoilt - I am keen in replacing the internal movement.

After removing the old internal movement, the the dial doesn't come off from the back. It seems like you can only remove from the frontal part of the watch.  

I tried using a Swiss knife to remove the front bezel, but it doesn't seemed to move. 

Any ideas how to remove the front glass? so that I can fix in the new internal movement. 

Appreciate your advice? Thanks. 

Have a great day ahead.

You need to remove the bezel, lot's of discussions on tools and techniques on here.  I'm puzzled on how you removed the movement without the dial attached.

If the bezel does not separate from the case, you can re-install the case back and force air in through the case tube to pop out the crystal. I have needed to use this method for some Skagen and other "thin" style watches with small case backs. Removing the metal tip of my dust blower and putting the opening of the bulb over the case tube usually gives a sufficient seal, and then give it a quick squeeze. Of course wrap it loosely in a cloth so the glass (or back) doesn't fly away. Usually you leave the movement in place to prevent damage to the dial and hands, just removing the crown and stem to allow air to enter. Dust-Off cans work too (sometimes better), but squeeze the trigger slowly.
