Happy to report, one is on the way. Getting new toys is part of the fun😊 -
Option 2 is tricky, but doable using silicone grease and a small flat screwdriver with dull tip & tweezers. You may even use some electric tape between o-ring and the blade while pushing the o-ring to prevent damaging it. You may also search here for a new waterproof crown: https://www.cousinsuk.com/category/waterproof-watch-crowns I wish you luck and hope you will work something out. I am going to spend less time on this forum as I need to concentrate on some interesting and time-consuming current projects with vintage watches (jewels replacement, new balance staffs, etc). TIME for a break :-).

After a little research...made by Patek Philippe for Tiffany. It is in beautiful condition. I recall my dad having great respect for Patek Philippe. I think they are credited with make the most complex mechanical watch of all time. -
Same as the lume, it'll suspend in the gap. Although since you're repainting anyway, what about a different lume colour there? I think they have lume that looks black in daylight . Not as bright as regular but still, nice touch

I had a similar situation, but it ended up being easier ordering a new crown than finding the correct o-ring and reassembling. Still have the old crown though, might get around to it 😉
