Dissembling of Summarit 50 f1.5

The focusing ring of my Summarit 50 f1.5 is very stiff and I have successfully dissembled for lubrication except the retaining ring as shown. I unscrewed the lock screw and tried to unscrewing the ring anti-clockwise but unsuccessful.  Does anyone know the unscrewing direction is anti-clockwise or clockwise? Thanks a lot.

I don't but I suggest that you post the thread in the 'Leica Collector and Historica' sub-forum where Jerzy will see it and would probably be able to help.

A spanner wrench with suitable tips would be able to get this done properly.
