I would like to open a Nautilus 601. I am having trouble figuring out if the case open through the front or the back. It sure looks like there is a seam in the back, but I can't seem to pry it open.

I have enclosed some images I found on the web. Do I need to open the crystal instead? Thank you.

Looks like it a "through the crystal" type thing, you have to take the crystal off, seperate the split stem and drop the movement out. If that is what it is, leave it up to a pro.
