Mark XVI v2 repair ?

[gkohn]

Hi folks,

Have a new XVI v2 that's less than a year old and the crown no longer wants to stay screwed in. Is there a reasonable fix or should I put this in the scrap pile and save for the real thing?

TIA

You might get lucky and find a gen crown and tube. Wouldn't be too difficult to install.

Those hard to get I assume?

I have tried to source gen IWC parts for my beloved GST too to no avail.

No, a tube and a crown isn't that hard to find. Just try some watch smiths.
