I get what you mean, I’m not worried about where to remove them underside of the hands, just the positions at the time of reinstalling them -
Mmm that’s a good idea but mine it’s just the tip so no threads at all, I will try to remove the stem first without tearing the whole thing first see if I can get it out, thanks for the tips

It isn't 100% necessary to have the hands at 12. They can be facing opposite to each other so you are gripping the underside of the hub of the hands and not the hand itself, if that makes sense -
If you're doing a full service then everything is going to have to be realigned anyway. I've got some crowns with a very long tube I use to get a grip on the stem and remove it. -
If it is a bolt type rotor bearing like in a modern ETA 7750 I would remove the bearing and dip it in. If it is a friction fit type, like on an old Valjoux 7750 then I use a pipette to put a very small drop on the bearing without getting on the rotor, because it will leave a bit of a waxy white mark otherwise. Try it, works a treat! If a client brings in an automatic that hasn't been service in 8 or 9 years plus, I replace the reversing wheel(s) as standard
