Hello,
No matter the crown thread, appropriate stems are available in both sizes . Most current size for a chronograph is gauge 120 ( 1.2mm).

Thank you for your Answer. English is not my motherlanguage, I didn't understand, what you mean no matter the thread?

You mean that Crown with 0,9 can approach to 1,2 or...but how it could be? Now I am lost..

0.9 needs a 0.9 stem, 1.2 needs a 1.2 stem

But.....

both 0.9 and 1.2 stems will work with the 188.

1.2mm treaded stem was probably original. The same stem (either 1.2mm or .9mm) was used in the Venus 150, (not cal 170), 175, 188 etc and Valjoux 7730/3/4/6/7.
