That's the hard way...

The trick with these is to free the middle tab from the retaining slot and then hinge the clip up with the two end tabs still located. The jewel can then be removed, cleaned, and replaced without the clip ever leaving the plate.

I probably haven't described this very well but if you google Seiko Diafix, or have a look here;

you will see what I mean.

Incidentally Martin's blog is an excellent read, especially if you have an interest in vintage Seiko.
