Contemplating another project (I really need psychiatric help!!) maybe a Tudor Big crown or a 6538. i was wondering about the crowns, it looks like there are several on the market, Yuki,NDT, maybe others. Who has the best, most accurate crown?

I bought one from NP trading (Natalie's Passion) on Ebay. buy it Now is 150.00. I took donerix's advice offered 95.00 USD and got it. I'll post a few photos when it gets here.

just been on there they quoted me 37usd for shipping to my country photos look good 95 usd seems reasonable.

Boy, you sure have to hope it's the 3.0mm x .35 tap which is standard for all of the 6mm and 7mm tubes.

There's no way that the tube for this thing is going to be the same diameter as a standard 7030.

The stem is the usual tap 10 size... And look how big the barrel is around the base for the stem.

Compare to a 7mm:

Granted, the pic is of an aftermarket 702, the sizes are the same as gen...
