I am going to refurbish my Datejust 16013 case and need to know how to remove the movement before i start.
Is the movement fixed into the case in some way?

After removing the back, bezel, lens and crown.

Open the caseback
Tighten the two larger screws on the outer edge of the movement
Then rotate the movement until one of those screws is at the opening for the crown
The movement should come out if you flip over the case

Try to keep the movement as clean as possible and in a dust free container until it is ready to be re-installed

Don't forget to take the stem out first
