Waltham 1123 stem and crown removal help

[AndyGSi]

I've got them as 1.75mm pipe but that's on a 5.5mm crown so will check later when I get home.

Edit

Realised when I've got home that the 1.75mm tube is because it's a 1.3mm thread while the 0.9mm thread have 1.3mm tubes.

1.75 would have been tight.  My watch opening is roughly 1.7mm, so the 1.3 will be loose, but this isn't going to be a waterproof watch.  Is my best option still the .9x5mm on cousins?

Do you think shiny or something with a little more patina?

Hi Andy, I think shiny will match the watch better.  I put it in the cleaner, and it came out shiny.  Please let me know how to compensate you for the crown.  That's going to match way better than a new piece.
