Crown comes our of vintage Tudor!

Hey all,

A friend if mine has a 70 Tudor 7016 with an eta movement. Watch works fine. Crown winds and sets time but if you pull a little too far it comes right out! Is this something I could easily fix for him by tightening one or two screws if I can get the case back open? If so, how? Please advise!!

Thanks!

Yes, it is usually one screw that has come loose. Easy fix but the watch seals should be checked and a pressure check done after it is secured.

Thanks so much Larry! Is there any way of identifying which screw it is exactly?

Thanks again!

It's usually the smallest screw near the point where stem goes into the movement. -And usually the most worn :)
