The best bet will be to call whatever is your nearest Breitling Service Centre and cut out the AD completely. They will be able to give you a good "ball park" figure, or range of figures, depending on what's wrong with it.

I would guess that either the crown thread, or the crown tube thread (or both) have stripped, which is why the crown pops out. Replacing the crown would be considerably cheaper than the crown tube as (if memory serves) the Seawolf, as part of the Avenger series, uses an integrated crown tube which would mean replacement of the entire mid-case. Plus you will be stung for a full service either way.

Welcome. I think it would help if you said what your country was.
