Hi everyone,

I need a couple of new crowns for the 2 watches pictured.Does anyone know where I could get them from rather than sending them off to Breitling UK?

Kind Regards,

Mark

Mark I have no idea if this will fit the SS one. The advert says it fits a Chronomat so maybe so.
You yourself may know, but if not, I would let one of the experts take a look.
It's available on ebay UK under BIN. (Sellers in Malaysia)

I can get some genuine Breitling crowns but I will need details on size, hole size and hole tap to know whether I can get ones that fit these, and I don't have those details for each watch.

What is wrong with the crowns? They look good in the photos.

BTW... Nice original 81950's!

The crowns are not catching the hands to wind them.The silver one comes out completely.The watches really need a complete overhaul to be honest.

Oh heck I'll sell you any crown then - doesn't matter whether it fits, the watch won't work.

The problem isn't the crown it's something in the winding stem, crown, clutch, etc.

They'll need the attention of a watchmaker.
