"push down on the pusher while the other hand pulls on the crown stem. Normally it takes only about 0.5 to 1 mm way down and then the crown stem is released. What or who is holding the watch? A movement holder is a good idea for this kind of work. I have however seen watch makers holding the movement in their open left palm, pressing the pusher down with their left thumb while pulling the crown stem with the right thumb and index. This "flying" version can be risky, if you do not have a lot of practise, go for the movement holder or place the watch on the workpad in a way that it will not move if you push down on the pusher. "
I don't think this is instructions on how to screw a crown down?...sounds more like how to remove a winding stem,or re-setting a chrono hand?
