Hi everyone, I need some help. I have a 503 OMEGA SEAMASTER CALENDAR Automatic. The problem I have is the crown is not matching and just a plain crown with no omega mark. I am looking for an original crown. Also I know who how to remove the crown/stem from the watch. Is the stem glue on to the crown or does it screw off. So I need some where can I get parts/parts # or if someone has one for sale let me know thanks.
We could make a better stab at advising you if you would be so kind as to provide some photos of your watch. If the crown is glued on then it is not a factory-authorized repair. Crowns are available.
Sorry about that I just got the watch on monday. I took the crown out and looks like it would screw but it rust on the stem and might no screw off. I took pictures. Is a plain crown a replacement! THANKS FOR YOUR HELP!
Also the watch runs great. When I got it the min. hand had to be reset because it was flop around and it been running straight for 1 day Half now.
Thanks. It would appear that your watch's dial has been refinished. Where did you find your watch? I'm a huge leather strap fan for watches and hardly keep any watches on bracelets. Others feel that leather straps are an offense to the eye. It's whatever suite your tastes.
Hi I just look under a 15x and the min marks had be remove at one time. So I guess that hurt the value
also metal bands tear up the lugs on watches. I also seen more of the divers watch have rubber bands. Some quit nice!
You can't just buy a crown. You also need the winding stem as the current one was cut to fit the crown thats on it. New stem has to be cut to fit the signed crown and adjustments need to be done to make sure it fits properly. If you don't know what your doing. You could damage the stem (improper cut) or damage the threads on the crown. I'v done it loads of times and every once in a while still mess up the crown threads DON
