Re: Question about Tag/Heuer 980.066L Crown
In Response To: Re: Question about Tag/Heuer 980.066L Crown ()

Post a close up pic of the crown tube with the crown in the time setting position. I can probably verify what it is from that.

If anyone has any other insight into this, it would be helpful but my theory is that none were true push-in crowns, only bayonet crowns which almost 100% if the time stripped after a handful of uses and from then on were push-in Crowns because they would no longer function as intended.

Thanks,

Justin
