Hi, finally got the watch.

As expected, crown is not original.

Do you know if in this models original crowns were usually signed or unsigned? I'll try to find a correct period one, especially if signed.

Any help about where can I source one will be appreciated.

Thx.

this is from a transitional period, early/mid 1950s, so could have had a signed crown or not.
there are 6mm signed service crowns on ebay that could be a decent fit
