Need crown size for casio 4004 sg


Recommended Posts

Maybe post a photo of the front and back of the watch? How is it that you know the p/n for the stem and not the p/n for the crown? You ought to be able to measure the OD of the threads and count the number of threads and come up with a reasonable guess on the required threads and then see if you can't find a donor watch.

Thanks for the reply i got the stem part number from the data sheet for the 0903a movement but unfortunately the crown isn't a listed part, probably because its a case part I'll post a photo like you said.

Well, that case back says it's a Seiko. Is that of the same watch? I thought you were looking for a Casio part? It seems there are a number of Seiko guys with YouTube channels - probably some Seiko guys here too. You might have better luck sourcing the stem/crown as one.

    • Hiya watch people,  any more ideas on what to do here yet ? How about just adding ourselves to waggy's list for now. You dont have to add your full name and an email that can be trashed takes minutes to set up. 
    • Certainly looks like a ring that needs unscrewing in that photo. It definitely looks like a thread above the castellated ring as well. Separate to the caseback ring thread. It even looks to be a smaller diameter. I would expect that. Once undone out of its thread, it should fall out of the case. Would it be possible to make a tool shaped like a letter H with one side of the H engaging the castellations in the ring and the other side of the H for you to be able to unscrew it using your hand? Making a tool with 6 'legs' to pick up all of the castellations would be a labour of love.
    • Can anyone advise how to remove the crystal from a Vertex DD case ?  I think I need to unscrew an internal retainer ?  It definitely isn't just pushing out.
    • Alright, the job is done. I first filed down the stubs flat. I then used a Proxxon hand drill first with a 0.5mm bit to score a point to work from, then a 1mm drill bit to properly drill out some lug holes. I just went slowly, checking the depth as I went. I drilled the inside of the lugs, leaving the outsides unblemished. I was worried that drilling at an angle might be a problem, but it turned out fine. Lug holes don't need to be very accurate, so it was actually easy to create holes to easily accommodate a spring bar. The result is a 'good enough' outcome that worked for me. Thanks for your help everyone, loving the hobby so far. I learn so much with each project.
    • Welcome to the forum. Yep not a cheap hobby by any means , Ali Express, the Chinese Amazon has some decent tools but should ask the members their thoughts before purchase.  A little reading to help you along. TZIllustratedGlossary.pdf
