thejonnymagic 0 Posted April 9, 2023 (edited) Hello, hoping the community can help! The crown broke on my (almost new) VSF Omega Aqua Terra. I've asked a few watch menders in NYC to try fix it but they need the VSF replacement parts (they haven't been able to find an alternative that works). Does anyone know how/where I can get a replacement stem/crown or if there's any other way to fix this? Reading the forums, it seems like broken crowns are a fairly common problem. It's a lovely looking watch and don't want to have to throw it away because of this one little part! The guy I bought it off in China has been responsive but says it's very difficult to get a replacement part from VSF right now? Any advice much appreciated! https://clickpix.org/image/IMG-4527.3tZw4b Edited April 9, 2023 by thejonnymagic add image Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GingerApple 7,285 Posted April 9, 2023 These are a right pain. Consider having the watch maker reinstall the crown with a shortened stem so that you can just push close it rather then screwing it tight. Obviously it won't be waterproof, but it should look the part. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GenTLe 1,501 Posted April 9, 2023 For the stem itself it's an easy fix with a stem extension: The crown... Well, that's a bit different story... You should measure yours and then try with one of these: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005004450936669.html https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005004140891083.html Also check here (but the crown isn't available it seems now): 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
