Gentlemen, I have a fairly new (less than a year old) Omega Seamaster Chronograph with an A7750 that has, what I believe to be, a screw down crown that's been stripped. I baby this thing and am looking for what I might do to repair it. Would it even be possible to repair it? Thanks for any help.

I think you may have to get a new crown, not sure there's anything else that can be done :(

Had the same problem. Had to source a gen crown and crown tube. Got it installed by a watchsmith. Now looking to franken the thing.

Like Bronzy said, you should replace through crown and tube. Contact Katt or 14060 for their availability to work on it. Good luck.
