Can’t tell, but is the watch gold capped?
if so. Probably won’t find an original crown (Omega stopped making gold capped crowns in the 50s). With the case reference number. You could get the current gold plated replacement. Not the same, but not much choice.
bezel. As Dan said, but do bezels from similar looking cases fit other ones?
post your location and someone can list a parts supplier. Also buy a new winding stem if they have the crown
@MtV is selling some stainless steel crowns which are correct for your reference, you might check the thread:

But if you are looking for a gold capped one indeed it is a bit harder.
C CachmoHi Don. I honestly have no idea if it's capped or plated. How would I be able to tell? I'm based in friedrichshafen, germany. On the border to Switzerland. Do you maybe know the part number of the gold plated crown that could fit. Finding part numbers for the movement is easy but I'm struggling to find for the other parts.
Area around the missing bezel looks like steel.
if you know the reference number on the case (inside on back). Don’t assume it’s the same as a picture. Make sure you have the correct number.
can email Cousins in the UK and see if they have one. Order a new stem also.
on the bezel. I don’t know how compatible bezels from other similar cases will fit. You could pay over $100 or more and find out it doesn’t work
if I buy a watch like that. It’s for the movement and dial. Keep the back and toss the case. I don’t bother looking for unicorn parts as it could turn into a money pit
C CachmoWould this be a correct gold plated one?
C CachmoIt almost looks like that silver looking area is a small bezel that was put on. Unless it's just how those watches look with out a bezel on as iv need seen a watch with out the bezel. So the back of the watch is pretty scratched up and has a engraving from the previous owner. The movement looks great and has been serviced. The dial also appears to be original. The back part of the case looks silver so could just be plated. There is a stainless steel case for sale on ebay with the same reference as this one. Would it be considered a frakenwatch if I change it to stainless steel now? Then I could buy the steel case and the steel crown.
