Have a question regarding a repair.....if a crown does not screw down anymore because the threads are stripped...how would this be repaired if you send it away to BUSA or any of their service centers?
Do they re-thread or do you need a new case?
Not sure how they would fix this.

Any thoughts?

Just to add....the watch in question is a SuperOcean. I think that make a difference based on some of the previous posts I have read on this matter.
Thanks!

You'll need a new middle case on any watch from the Aeromarine range because the crown stem tube is integral to the case.

No idea, probably a couple of hundred though.
