    Since a few month I am wearing this old lady as my daily beater.

    It came to me with a generic crown, that definetly is a bit smaller than the original one was.
    Can you tell me what size (diameter and stem thread) the original crown should have? - So I would be able to pick up a matching one.

    kind regards,

    Timo

    Be careful, as the Kontikis were made in more than one size, so there may be slightly different sized crowns as well. For accuracy, I'd suggest providing the diameter of your case and the caliber, so that the feedback is likely to be consistent.

    Yes, ofcourse.

    The case measures ~37mm Ref ist 130TT.
    6.7mm seems to be right.

    Thx
