In order to assist, the case number is required. Omega still sells these for many models...
Really? I must have an unlucky case number then.
The case number is 2849 4 sc
--------AFTER HOLIDAY UPDATE—-----
@Archer @WatchTimes
The plexy is still available by omega BUT In Italiy the Situation is this: the only way to have the new plexy is to send the watch to OMega ch and let do a complete service. At well know Omega rates....I had this info from the oldest authorized Omega dealer in Itali (Astrua 1860)
So: I’m actually open to any possible solutions: if in your country this plexy is available I could by there (maybe)
Perhaps you should send it to someone who can also get the crystal and let them do the entire service. I doubt that someone will simply sell you the crystal unless you can find someone with a stock of them. And I guess you've already looked.
I don't know why your AD can't get the part, but I wouldn't assume that they necessarily can speak for every watchmaker in your country. They might claim that, but you won't know until you ask around. @Archer already indicated that an actual watchmaker with a parts account can order those crystals, so I think you should contact some other options one by one.
Ok, I was in touch with some of the the oldest omega official dealers in Italy and most reputates independent watch makers in my country. Both told the same story. Simply no way to have parts for repair outside head office in Swiss. Don’t exist anyone that could have “Parts account”. The only way to repair it seems to be send to omega for a complete service.
Those are factual information, not “I heard that...” If goes different in other countries (for sure) please let me know.
