.....at least Im Pretty sure it's an SMP case.

Backstory. My beater bond SMP has an major case issue. I'd like to replace it.

Found the below case, but seller is not sure what exactly it is.

As above looks like SMP, it's a service case so has no serial no etc.

My 2541 is mid to late 90s and I think those cases have push fit case tubes (could be wrong) these look threaded.

Anyone know from looking at it what it is? Not great pics I know, but it's all I have

Thanks

Few things - Omega doesn't sell case frames like this. The only way to get this part is to buy the entire case and strip all the parts from it, so someone bought it as a complete case, and someone knows what the case number is. There's really no way to determine exactly what this is without the case number.

If you want to see if it's the same as your case, you are going to have to strip your case to the same level and compare all the dimensions.

Regarding the case tubes, Omega switch these from press fit to threaded on the 25418000, and also on the 25318000 models. These case tubes also require different crowns, so you can't mix the crown for a threaded case tube with a tube that is press fit...or vice versa...

What is the "major case issue" with your case?
