Hello all, I want to open the case of this Roamer that has mysteriously started running slow. It hasn't been worn much since it was serviced. The method of opening I does not appear to be immediately obvious. Do these cases require specialised tools or have I missed something? Thank you.

Soulboy, I believe your watch case comes apart by supporting the watch by its lugs and using a firm pressure on the outer edges of the crystal the inner case will slide out of the bezel, then by using a thin blade knife remove the crystal and ring, the stem should be a two piece type , put the watch in the setting possition, remove the crown or the male end of the stem then flip over the case and the movement should fall out. good luck Al
