Tudor 4463 - Help Needed

Hello - I am working on the repair of my 1940s Tudor 4463 Caliber 59. I have run into a snag. I cannot locate a proper replacement for the case/crown tube. I have attached a couple of pictures to show the crown type. It measure 5.4mm, approximately. I have included pictures of my watch and the correct crown.

Does anyone know the proper replacement type for the case tube? Thank you in advance.

Lotta radium!

Can't answer your question, but it's similar to mine other than the logo. Yours is earlier. Mine is late '50s. Love that curved 4!

What a beauty. That is a sharp example!! These watches are unique and very interesting. Certainly not the most expensive, but really neat. Thanks for sharing yours, zapokee.
