Can anyone throw any light on where to source a crown for a 1960's Breitling Valjoux 7733?

The unsigned crown is correct for that model.

Thanks for taking the time to reply - does anyone know if these are still available from Breitling or is it a matter of sourcing from the internet?

It is CORRECT as it is - this model did not have a signed crown.

Sorry for the confusion but I only included a link to the image as model reference and actually need help to find a replacement crown for my own watch. I have contacted Breitling direct and currently looking on e-bay. Any other suggestions?
Thanks again

assuming that the watch that needs a new crown is the same as you link to, any unsigned crown will do, your watchmaker is sure to have those available.
