Good afternoon. I purchased a cool vintage diver a while ago and am very happy with it. I polished the crystal and the dial looks amazing.
The only problem is the crown. It is obviously a replacement. I think there should be a screw on crown. Does anybody know what kind of crown would fit on it or point me in the right direction? Would be much appreciated. Here are some photos;
What do you guys think of the watch? I am not familiar with the brand

The crown doesn’t look good at all

Beautiful watch and a great bracelet also!

Edit: The case reminds me of a Titus Calypsomatic/Technos Skydiver.

Oh, I don't know.

It has a unique flair about it.

Nice watch ! Looks like a Parmentier crown, as seen on early Titus Calypsomatic 5913 mk 2 or Triton Spirotechnique.

First off, beautiful watch! But yeah, as others have said, it's a parameter crown that's missing the "cap" that goes over the actual crown. Pretty cool design, but might be hard to find the cap. Good luck! Again, really beautiful watch, that lume has stayed perfectly intact.

They appear to have been sold. If you google ‘Titus vintage parmentier crown cap’ there’s a few things including Airain who still make them.
