Wrist watch scenarios

Removing the movement from a wrist watch is sometimes easier, sometimes harder.  Most older wrist watch movements sat inside the back cover. When you take the back off, the movement goes with it and you will find yourself looking at the dial and hands. Now it is just a matter of lifting it out of the back. Others also have screws that will hold it into the bezel. On these, when you remove the back cover, and the watch doesn't come out with it, nor can it be removed easily, look for tiny screws and retainer clips that hold the movement in tight to the bezel and remove them. 

Others wrist watches will have the stem and crown that go through the side of the case making it impossible to remove the movement without first removing the crown and stem.  To remove the crown and stem, look for a smaller screw on the movement (shown with red arrow in adjacent picture)  This screw "locks" the stem in place. Unscrew it a few turns and pull the crown.  It should slide out.  A Hopefully though, your first watch is a Pocket watch, and you wont need this info.
