Try the link here Harry. You'll have to call because the valve crown and the valve is not listed on the site.

If your Seamaster is the 2531.80 the case number is either 168.1623 or 196.1523. I don't know what the difference is, but they go by case numbers for just about everything they sell for Omega's.

I'm not sure what is involved with replacement, but if Otto has it, you can probably get it faster from him than your authorized Omega dealer can.

I would definately have an authorized dealer do the work.
