I have a seamaster 565 caliber. Case 166.022 and the lug has broken off the case. Anyone know if or where there are such cases. My back is still fine and the working are great

 

Too bad about the lug (no idea where to find the case), but the good news is that your back is o.k. Remember the most important thing is one's health

 

You could try watchco who trades under abouttime ch on ebay. While they did have a major sale of Omega parts, they still have a few hanging around. The only other option is to trawl the internet auction sites for a donor watch of the same case number and use it for parts.

How does that even happen? a lug coming off the case...

 

With enough force, anything, is possible.

 

You broke a lug off a 166.022 (166.0022)?

I'm amazed.

This is a 166.022 case.

 

I bought the watch off eBay and discovered the broken lug when it arrived. It’s been repaired probably won’t break but I’d replace the case if I could find one. Seller offered me choice to return it or a 250 credit. I took the credit
