I lost mine last year in the snow. Dealers couldn't source it I had to find a dead watch and part it out. Best of luck!!
Sucks for you mate. I'm not so sure if it would fit perhaps try asking for the newer H factory v3 243 cg.
Our Expert [MENTION=35350]ALE7575[/MENTION] can chime in on about this.
Best of luck in finding one! Shame as it's a fantastic rep

Unfortunately. I can say nothing different to COLDI or other posters here
It is almost impossible to get a separate Crown Guard
Anyway try with your current dealer, you could have luck
The best recommendation is alwyas tightening all the screws of a rep ( mainly PAM CG) an use a bot of Loctite (222 - 243) to fix the thread.
I have just realized the Loctite ref. is also 243 !!!!... LOL

I ran into the same issue with my Noob 243 and tried numerous sources with no luck. I finally purchased an H Version and swapped the CG to my Noob version. However, I'm now have an unworn H with no CG. Please post if you find a source.
Thanks for everyone's response. I purchased the PAM from BK and he has very helpful in attempting to get a CG from his supplier with no luck. It is so unfortunate that we cannot get a CG from the supplier because it is such a beautiful watch. If I cannot find a donor watch, I may have to unload this watch to someone who is looking for their own donor watch.

Just a shot in the dark. Go to dajiwatch.com and check out the Parnis line of watches. They play homage to Panerai. One in particular is the Parnis Marina Miltare that has the same CG. If you set up an account the prices are cheaper even. You may want to swap one out. Google the Parnis brand and you'll come across several sites with the brand and pretty reasonable prices. Check it out. Good luck my friend.

email the seller and see if it'll fit the 243
I don't understand how difficult the PAM243 CG would be to source now that the H-Fac PAM243 V2 was just released. The parts factories should still be producing them.
THANK YOU Derik429. I have sent the ebayer a message to confirm that it will fit my PAM 243. Even though it does not have any markings on the CG, it will save the watch for me. Once again, thanks for the information. I am keeping my fingers crossed. I I will keep everyone updated.
Case guards arrived. Bad news. They do not fit. The ends of the cg are not long enough to clear the crown.
