Greetings. So I am in search period correct parts namely the crown and crystal for my 2998-61. My understanding is the period correct crown is the 45009. Can anyone confirm this?

Also what is period correct crystal part number?

Anyone know where best to find these?

 

As far as I know, this is a correct crown:

 

This is a new glas ;-)

 

This is an period correct crystal (flat feet), as fa as I know:

Maybe here?? or you can ask some well known members?

 

I was looking at Otto Frei and saw that the crown is Omega part #43018 and crystal is part #PZ5078. However, I am unsure whether these are service parts or the original components. Thoughts?

 

PZ5078 is the correct crystal for a 2998, though it is a modern version (but that's ok in my opinion).

The original crowns are much harder.. there were some on ebay no long ago for £300 each. They don't come up very often. The modern ones are around but have the newer, rounder logo.

 

For sure these are Service parts.

If you Need a new ( old crown) you must know the measurements......those parts are not easy to find and expensive.
