·Hello everyone,
I’m looking for help identifying, and possibly finding, the correct crown replacement for this 2937. I’ve owned the watch for a few years now, and it was purchased from a seller who had kept it in their own collection for a while and not much is known about its servicing history. There are a couple of marks on the caseback, and the watch has definitely been cleaned and properly serviced (gasket in good condition, none of the lume that is missing from the hands is around in the watch, etc.). I’ve always been happy with it despite some flaws and I wear it often. All it's fine to me (please correct me if I'm wrong in something) except for the crown that may have been replaced at some point, and I’ve struggled to find the correct one for quite awhile now. I’ve checked several references online for comparisons with other 2937 and found the exact same watch (though in better shape) here:
At the min 1:35 it’s mentioned that the original crown is 5.5mm in diameter with a 2.5mm thickness, but I still haven't found the proper replacement or the right model reference.
I can live well with the watch like it is, but it is something that itches in the back of my head every now and then, so here I am asking if anyone knows the part code for that specific crown, or has any suggestions or perhaps a spare one they’d be willing to sell for a reasonable price?
Thank you in advance for any feedback!
