To get this topic moving i to believe there were two version of the crystal but the most common is the domed one which is angled slightly rises above the bezel. And this one you show looks vertically above the crystal... Finding an aftermarket of this is probably easy but the common version is not...

I hope other experts can share some thoughts in this topic.

As you recall I to tried the search for a close match crystal nut i didn't have luck in the matter.

: I have a quick crystal quesiton for you guys. I have two Viceroys
: now and they have two different crystals. The first has the
: crystal that I see in the images on OTD (below), it has a bit of
: a sharp "edge" to it. My other Viceroy has more of a
: rounded, dome style crystal. It came from the original owner who
: said that he never replaced it (of course he may not remember
: correctly after all these years).

: So did Heuer use only one style of crystal, and are all plastic
: crystal Autavias the same?
