Hey guys, so I havn't been wearing this watch I bought for my Bday in June a whole lot. It just doesn't feel right. I need to get a leather band with the deployment clasp first and foremost because the bracelet with the extra GMT watch on doens't fit right and the screws are not coming loose to adjust it.
Now my problem is the crown. IT has never screwed down. It'll sorta go tight when its supposed to screw in but just pops out a few seconds later. Im wondering if this can be harmful to the watch if I don't get it fixed and if I can even get it fixed, will it cost more than its worth??

Thanks!

1. You can get Breitling replica calf leather or croc style with deployant buckle. Should cost less than 50USD. Your Chrono Avenger has the same lug size as Navitimer and Chronomat (22mm). A third party strap will work here too.

2. It seems that you have stripped your crown tube. You may contact the dealer who sold you the watch for repair job. You need both the crown and the tube. You can reuse the stem but I would recommend replacing it too. Get a stem (slim one) for ETA 7750. It will fit your movement.

I am sure he can replace crown and crown tube but I think you have to source for the parts yourself. Why not contact him? He will give you far better answer than me about what works he can do :p Good luck fixing your Chrono Avenger.
