    I own a Seamaster Automatic Racing 3602 for 8 years (2006).
    On 11/2007 the chronograph failed (!!!) (that took 500 euros to repair it at the official dealer in Greece...)

    Yesterday the crown just unwinded. As I tried to screw it back, I broke it :(
    I went back to the official Omega offices, and guess what.. they asked 400 euros for the repair.
    The dealer in Greece DOES NOT SELL the crown only. They said "yes we have it. It will cost approximately 400-500 euros"

    Seeing a wristwatch of 3700 euros to need extra 1000 euros within 8 years, it really makes me wonder.
    Definitely, I am not going to have it repaired in the official Omega, since I am pretty unsure about the quality of their work.
    Now, my question dear fellow-omega-owners is if you know where I could find the CROWN only.

    Thanks in advance for your time.

    Okay yours is the stainless steel version - there is also a titanium version, so I had to be sure which one you had.

    The crown part number is 069ST42154.

    Anyone with an Omega parts account can get this crown for you, and you may be able to find it on the open market as well - eBay or possibly a watch parts supplier. You could try Cousins in the UK.

    Note that you should get a watchmaker to do the installation for you.

    Cheers, Al
