Abel - I meant to say that at the end but forgot. It was interesting to see the inside of this crown. Most of the WP ones I have taken apart only needed a single seal and many of those had to have the cap removed to change the seal. The caps on the 2 Heuer crowns were the hardest ones I ever tried to remove.
Thanks, Craig
: Hey Craig,
: That's the way to go!
: Only...you really don't need to take the crown apart, you can leave
: the washers riveted onto the crown...you can get the sealing out
: of the crown very easily even if it is still intact. If it has
: melted already a solvent is ideal to solve the mess inside.
: Cheers,
