Rolex Bubbleback 5011 Crystal Question

Hi,

I am trying to find the correct crystal for a Rolex Bubbleback 5011. All internet searches for model parts for that particular watch don't yield many results and no crystals. While measuring the current incorrect crystal (put there by the last service person ) on it's widest part over the case it is 25.5 mm. Searching for a bubbleback crystal that size yields Rolex 25 30 Tropic for Bubble Back part. However the model numbers typically listed for that part number are for 6420, 6421, 6432, 6544, 6545, 6547, 6548, 6549, 6651, 6553, 6554, 6557, 6559, 6571 models.

Question is can it still be used on the 5011 since they are probably similar in size and shape, and does that crystal have a proper dome shape, or can anyone point me to the right crystal part number for that model? All the Rolex crystal charts do not list the 5011.

many thanks in advance from any persons willing to chime in!

thank you!
