Timex T2N740 stem and crown

[MavUK666]

Hi all, new here, I found the forum while desperately hunting for a stem and crown for my T2N740, I also have a T2N721 and a T49706, love these watches but I was gutted when my crown broke off at the weekend, not had any luck with Timex UK, so I suspect that while

They still make and sell the T2N740 they don't appear to offer parts to the general public, has anyone ever had any success?

If you can remove the broken stem from the crown, you could use a stem extender.

Sounds like it might be a plan, still drawing a blank on a replacement stem and crown so I think the next step will be to take it to a watch repairer and see fi there's anything they can do

As @RichardHarris123 has said, the simplest option is to remove the broken
stem (may need to be dissolved using alum powder) and use an extender.

Can you remove the back and let us know what the movement is.

Stems are usually available for most calibers including Timex. If you can remove the broken part fitting new stem is a relatively simple procedure. Plenty of vids on YouTube showing how. If it was me I would remove the seal first then add some heat ( maybe locktited in ) then with a small tipped screwdriver undo.

Hi Heritage 1854 are timex enthusiasts and may be able to help with either parts of advice.
