Ok thanks to
@Syrte I got in touch with a watchmaker knowledgeable of vintage Longines.
It appears the replacement winding stem I thought was for a 12.68z was probably for a different Longines caliber, maybe a cal 22 which fits a .9mm crown. Just can’t always trust eBay.
Anyways I just ordered another 12.68z stem that measures at 1.1mm, which will fit my crown.
Will post pics once my baby is period correct again!
