As they are a part of the Richmond group, the parts policies are about as shitty as Swatch Group I assume.
If this is, as you indicate, something truly rare, and based on the 13-20CH I think a "trip to see it´s maker" could be a good alternative.
Of course such a "visit" needs to be followed with very detailed instructions on not undertaking any replacement of parts (including wear items) unless your good self approves in writing......
Still hoping to see some photos.....
