Recently picked this lovely Vintage Seamaster rep with gen crystal and strap. The rep crown really lets the watch down. I'm thinking of replacing it with a gen crown and tube, especially after successfully completing this mod on my UPO. Anyone else done this or know if CousinsUK sell a crown and tube that would fit...?

don't hang me if I'm wrong, but normally "ofrai" is good for omega gen stuff. I don't know if these old vint parts are available there though. and don't mention reps there, they are not rep friendly!!

good luck with your very nice watchj. I love the 300m :)

Thanks for the info. Yes I've dealt with Ofrei before.

I don't mind fitting a gen omega crown that isn't the correct part for this model, as long as it'll fit!
