Flieger Type A Modifications Plan - addendum 2

Continuation from http://andywristwatches.blogspot.my/2016/06/flieger-type-modifications-plan_22.html :

Looks like there were lots of onion crowns that would fit the ETA 2824-2 movements, and a search through watch sites and e-Bays produced many options. The hunt for a sterile crown should be a walk in the park then.


There were also sterile crowns from Laco, Archimede, Stowa, etc that could be procured, depending on the right fittings and whether the crown tickled your fancy.

LACO Flieger Special Edition 

ARCHIMEDE Pilot Original Limited Edition

STOWA Pilot Original Limited Edition

I have my regular watch smiths that could do case-polishing, servicing and regulating of movements, perform water resistance seal tests, etc but am looking for someone in Klang Valley that could do watch dial relume services. If any readers have any recommendations, kindly PM or e-mail me with the contacts and the approximate costs involved. 

Online searches had the below example, with an Archimede Flieger Type A relume to a spanking Superluminal C3; and boy does it glows thereafter!
