Thanks for all of you,

I am a new one.  My hobby is repaire watch, not a job. I learn the skill from youtube, especially Mark's channel, it helps me a lot. I bought watch from ebay and dissambly it, clean it and reinstall.

This crown is from a Movado lady watch, is a original crown. The watch is very cheap and I don't want to spend too much to find a new original crown. I know in "cousinsuk.com" have this kind dustproof crown, but I want to try my best to fix this original one first.

Thank you.

That is a nice ladies watch movement look after it. I never found a successful reliable way of fixing this type of button when they come apart as your has done. I suppose with the types of glue that are around today you could try gluing it. Other then that I can't think of any other way. In my workshop I would just replace it.

      On the link that I posted, ne of the watches has no crown and another has an a crown that is not square to the case. Does a broken crown signify that the movement may be quite corroded, hence the stem has broken,  and does the bent crown simply signify that the stem is bent? Unfortunately as the seller has a bid on the items, he is now reticent to prise the casebacks off in case he damages something. The seller did reply with this email though. Hi again Michael - brief descriptions; Oris x 2, dials and hands ok and they set ok and one I just wound and it has been running for a few of minutes as I write this response. Rocar, dial ok no crown. No name dial no good and can't pull crown out to set. Roma dial and hands ok, I think it is pin pallet movement. Unicorn, good dial and hands and plexiglass ok for age. All cases and plexiglasses show wear except as mentioned. I have no idea what movements are fitted or condition so please if you do consider bidding, please do so accordingly as I don't like to disappoint my customers - regards and thanks again for your interest - Jim

      The incomplete Vertex DD is a new project to sort out.  The Seiko gen 1, is my favourite watch to wear and is my daily.

      To be fair it was a beautiful 'bumper'.  But, there was some loose parts in the case.  Perhaps 'pig' was a bit excessive 😄.
