A generic in a different, but acceptable style is possible, no?

Doubt it.

Not seen any similar when I lost mine when it fell out.

Looks like the crown has snapped between the two gaskets? Could be a problem . And could mean that the stem is still intact? And the olny thing you need is a new crown? Which probably isn't that easy to find? Problem is getting it out? As the first gasket is in there making it harder to remove the stem? 

Maybe? http://www.thewatchlab.co.uk/2012/02/03/breil-watch-straps-repairs-uk/

Aren't they part of the same group that also owns Goldsmiths ? [emoji4]

cheers rob

 

One Italian seller does stock them but want the numbers on the back of the watch.

 

Can you post then I'll pass onto them and find out costs Inc postage.

No problem [emoji106]
Details sent as well as the pic of the watch so belts and braces.
A while back I paid around €10 just for postage on a stem sent from just outside Rome so expect a higher than normal postage cost.

Bad news I'm afraid....

Got a reply back from Italy.

"Buongiorno, 

la referenza è un po' datata, la sua corona originale è esaurita.
La casa da' in alternativa una corona un po' piu' grande da adattare e sarebbe da sostituire il canotto sulla cassa ( non fornito) al costo di €15.00 .

Questo è un lavoro che potrebbe fare un suo orologiaio di fiducia .

Ci faccia sapere se è interessato o preferisce far adattare altro.

saluti"



Roughly translated....



Good morning,

The reference is a little dated, the original crown is out of stock.
The manufacturer offered an alternative crown a bit bigger to fit but he need to replace the case tube (not supplied) at a cost of € 15.00.

This is a job that a trusted watchmaker could do.

Let us know if he is interested or he prefers to fit other.

regards
