Gasket (To Waterproof)

[whitegold]

Will be grateful if anyone could help. I've searched but couldn't find the relevant answers or I'm possibly not searching correctly.

I'm looking to get gaskets for both the crystal and crown for the following 2 watches

Panerai 243 H-Fac
Panerai 441 VSF

Anyone know what sizes I need or where I could order them from? (I'm in the UK)

I am guessing the 243’s crystal is 36.5mm and the opening to be 37.4mm. Leaving the gasket to be 37.4 x 0.4 x 1.2.

But may I ask, can’t you just use the existing gasket?

Thanks
I've sent a few watches away for waterproofing and the watch magician has managed to proof some of them, but has asked me to get gaskets for specifically these two.
I'm guessing they weren't in a state where greasing would've been enough.

Doesn't the 441 have a bezel/crystal assembly that comes off by twisting?

Correction. I meant to say 441, not 243

Could you illustrate this a little more and better, please?

More specifically - how do you twist and pull it off? Clockwise and is it just threaded on?

I really don’t know to be honest.
I just remembered that this is the case with this watch.
I’ve googled the image to show you.
Probably if you search here at RWI, you’ll find your answer

The threaded bezel, as well as the caseback, the crystal is pressed into the bezel, and I suppose, using the same gasket.
A few more photos, if they help understand:
