    Don't take the screw out all the way...

    tiny screw holds clip in, and it needs loosening only. If you unscrew it, the clip unloads and pings the tiny screw across the room into the cats mouth. Easier to not undo it all the way, battery comes out anyway!

    A pair of sharp nose tweezers to pry one end loose is handy. I was lucky enough to lose, and find, the screw, twice!
    The movement itself is magical compared to the pressed plastic tat that base ETA quartz movements are.

    Is that the same one listed on the website and the instruction leaflet?

    Whole chunks of my life come under the heading "it seemed like a good idea at the time".

    I'm sure it is but as I didn't have access to either at the time, I thought I would ask here!
