Parts for those are non-existent, sorry. Especially the one piece stem/crown combo. Check out the bottom of this though.

how could i get hold of one of those aftermarket crowns? I don't think it is feasible to mail my watch which is fully serviced otherwise , for a replacement crown. Am I able to purchase outright? Cheers, Arne. :  :

spoke to Ron Gordon in NY . He seems to have a Heuer modified solution. We were young travelers in 1992 and i was hell bend on Zodiacs ( still am ) , when we came through NY , we visited Ron's showroom and i bought a Zodiac from him than and there.
What is your e-mail address? Cheers, Arne.

These are available parts and any watchmaker should be able to do this, even down there. BWG was just the first to do it.
