I am looking for the dimensions of a Top Time 810 crown. I need a replacement signed crown and want to keep the watch as authentic as possible. I'll need the diameter (I think 6mm), tap, and tube.

Thanks for your help...

here's a crown thread w/ Craig/chronodeco comments.

TT810 crowns are 6mm indeed.

I have been calling around looking for a crown, and on one call with a repair shop (one that I found listed on this forum) I was told that some Top Time 810 models did not have a signed crown, rather a plain one. Anyone heard or seen this before? I have looked at many images online and never seen one without a signed crown.

ex works all had a signed crown, but these were quite often replaced w/ neutral crowns during service.

Heard from Craig on the dimensions for the signed crown, so thought I would post here in case anyone needed them. WatchFred confirmed it is 6mm diameter, and Craig said it is a tap 6 and tube 2.6 but a 2.5 will work. The only thing I didn't ask about was the width, but I found one on eBay that is 2.75mm and I think that will be close. Hope this helps someone in the future.
