Ronda 715 dismantle guide

[4FT4B1ç_4]

Hi,

Oakley's Gearbox seems to have a Ronda 715 if i'm correct, anyone knows a good youtube tutorial to dissasemble this mechanics please ? I can't find one correct...

Besides, do you know if the glass is glued to the watch case or you can simply remove it ?

Thanks

It uses a hard plastic gasket the crystal comes out fairly easily. I've never completely taken a movement apart on one of those tho. I've replaced a couple on my own watches. They seem to fail more often than any other oakley watch I've had.

Thanks, actually something very funny happened to me. I bought a Gearbox that has been serviced before sending it to me, but the watchsmith "turned" the dials the other way, so now i'm here with a "reflected" Gearbox lol !

I've seen quite a few of those lol

Also, did someone removed the 2 screws on the top face of the gearbox case near the stem crown ? I did not tried cuz i don't wanna scratch the screws, but they seem to be "fixed" and only for esthetic purpose, right ? My plans are to get cerakoted the whole block, hoping to acheive a badass look on the watch

The two slotted ones are fake they're just glued in. The Allen head ones right next to the crown are real.
