I was planning on upgrading the 7s26 movement in my Seiko Monster gen 1 with a spare NH36 movement. All was going well until it came to the crown/stem. I had thought I could simply remove the old stem from the crown and screw in the NH36 stem. I then discovered that the old stem cannot be removed from the crown. When I modded my SKX009 it was a simple case of swapping the old one with the SARB059 crown/stem but I don't know if this will fit the monster case/tube. Even if it is the correct length. Is there anywhere I can obtain a crown that fits the case and I can screw the NH36 stem into? After market or genuine. I will need to cut the stem to the correct length. Any help would be most appreciated. Thanks. Of course an alternative is to fit the 4r36 movement with the gen 2 crown/stem but it would be more expense!
I have spent the evening on the internet trying to find an answer to no avail!
