1940's Rolex Observatory
Hey guys!
I just picked this one up.. any info on a crystal part # or someone that might be able to supply me with a replacement crystal?? Watch runs well and keeps good time but if I can find a crystal for it, then I'll send it out for servicing also. |

Congrats, nice find. Sorry, no ideas about a crystal.
Might need a custom job. Can I ask does the the inner caseback say R.W.C or Oyster Watch Co? |

caseback says ROLEX and then KEYSTONE and VICTORY and then theres a case # stamped below it. Sorry I dont have a picture right now... Apparently they Keystone watch company made cases for Rolex and Omega during this time.
