I don't know how to describe it. Maybe as semi-hard. If you've ever ordered one from Cousins you'll know what they're like. I have the original gasket intact but I want "fresh" parts. Worst case scenario I'll reuse the existing gasket with a flat crystal having the exact diameter. My concern is I can't find a gasket with the exact outer diameter. It's either 0.1mm too small or too large. Anyway, I got a tip from @Zendoc of an eBay seller who's good with Mondaine so I'll get in touch with that seller and see what he can do. -

I've seen some pallet jewels from India with one side angled for entry and the other side for exit. Very strange but practical. -

The entry and exit stones have different impulse face angles murks. -
Depending on how much of the screw is left, you may be able to screw it further in and it may fall out of the hole that the dial foot sat in. To do this I rough up the tip of the good screw and screw it in, often the rough surface of the good screw and the rough surface on the broken screw get enough of a bite to transmit the torque into the broken section and force it out the other side. Like I said the size of the broken screw needs to be in your favor, but you never know you may get lucky.... or if you get it moving you may be able to then back it out with a screwdriver taking a bite on the rough surface. worth a try
