Hi all,

I'm currently working on my second Omega Seamaster Cosmic 2000. While the movement is now 'under control', I have a new issue that I have not yet run in to so far. The stem of the Omega is a split stem, with male and female part. The female stem part (attached to the crown side) is broken. So I need to replace it, while of course keeping the original crown. When searching on google/Youtube I see a lot of examples where the threaded stem can be removed with the aid of a pin vice, just unscrew. But this stem looks different, see attached photo's.  No thread and I can't tell if it's one part or multiple parts. I already have an Omega replacement female stem from Cousins, but that one is threaded and much thinner in diameter.

Does anyone have experience with this? Can I just unscrew the stem from the crown, or does it work differently? 

Hope somebody can help!

Has it got the logo on the crown.

I think you're best option is going to be to remove the damaged stem and measure it.

Edit

Do you have the case reference number.

So the crown should be a 0.9mm thread as you've ordered.

How do you know the thread size is wrong if you've not removed the broken stem yet?

I don't know that yet 🙂 The part that is visible is NOT threaded and much thicker, that's why I'm confused...

I'm gonna try unscrewing it and will report back. Thanks for the help so far!
