Anyone else have a seamaster crown cone right off? Cause my 2264 just did after setting date
Hoping jeweler can fix

 

Shouldn't be a problem for any watchmaker to fix.

 

He said he could
It was a little spring and the crown I cried

 

I had a crown fall off and it was no big deal getting a new one put on. The hard part was finding it..... which I didn't!

 

How many weeks does it usually take to fix

 

That would depend on where you take it any why the crown came off in the first place.

 

Local watch maker .and no clue I set the date and it just didn't screw back in then the crown came off lol

 

pictures?

 

As soon as the watchmaker has it on the bench 5-10min

 

Wow that would be great
I'd really love to wear it lol
It's beautiful

 

I didn't take one
But basically the crown came off and the stem was there with a spring still sticking in the watch

 

I don't think the crown came off the stem - I think the crown has failed and come apart. That would be the only way a spring would be visible.

This will likely need a new crown, so unless the watchmaker happens to have one in stock, the 5-10 minute estimate is out the window...

 

Looked like this

 

Mmmm, that's not a 2264.

 

This is just an example I found on Google

 

New crown required.

 

Ugh and I take it that it will take forever

 

Take it to a watchmaker with a parts account, and it could be fixed in a couple of days.

 

Well this guy has had it since yesterday so we will see what happens
It has a one year warranty through the buyer but by the time I ship back to Canada it gonna be a pretty penny

 

Got the news
It needs a whole new crown it's been ordered and will be done Monday
