Omega Seamaster Deville Problems

MuffinTime428 · Jun 17, 2023

Hello all,
I was recently gifted a vintage Omega Seamaster Deville. I have gotten it serviced, but one day, when I was setting the time, the crown popped out. I have watched a few YouTube videos to see if I could reattach it, but when I tried to reattach the crown, it would not pop back in. It is a female to male attachment crown. Have any advice?

Thanks,
MuffinTime428

Most reputable watch repairers give a warranty on service - so send it back under the warranty.

These can get tired and start to come loose. Take it back to your WM, ask if it was replaced and what they would recommend to resolve.

Given how rusted it appears to be, I doubt it was replaced....

That's an older style as well, so not the current female end. Quite possible that the movement portion of the stem is also in bad shape...
