Omega 1444 Polaris

[richardadelberg]

How can I remove the stem without removing the entire black electronic bridge and lifting up on the yolk where it rides on the stem channels. If I pull hard will it come out?

im trying to swap one movement into a better case. I had a striped slide pinion in the setting . I attempted to change it and created a monster! I removed the entire bridge and the bridge holding the second, third, and center wheels came off and I’m not able to get them back on. This is so small I’m beyond my dexterity . 

I have a donor but need to swap cases

Welcome to this forum. I can't help with your question but wanted to let you know that we also have a section where most people like to introduce themselves.

So I'm assuming that the number 1444 is the caliber? 

Then with any stem if you pull hard enough it will come out and damage will occur.

So image attached the screw that has the arrow and I circled you loosen the stem will hopefully come out. But occasionally with stems like this you may have to remove the circuit board.  Then even if you take the circuit board off you do not have to remove the bridge with all the remaining wheels.
