Hello all, I have been working on a Titanic watch from the early 1950s and found that the crown tube is completely gone. Looking at the breakage point, it looks like the crown tube was originally fused to the case. With this in mind, I think purchasing a threaded replacement tube might require drilling then tapping the watch case which I want to avoid. My current thought is to turn a new tube on a lathe and then laser weld it onto the case. Has anyone here faced similar situations with crown tube repair? I'm unsure of what to do and appreciate any advice. Thanks!

Came across this whilst trawling for info. Seem to have a large selection of decent watch cases,movements etc. Not used but may be helpful to others searching for that obscure item. In Italian so you may need a translator app. http://gioielliboccacci.it/gioielli_boccacci_lista_ricambi_di_orologeria.htm
