Chaps I have a 1978 Seiko Tuna 7549-7010, it was my Dads from new (he was a diver)and for the past few years my everyday wear. I get it serviced every year but the glass is starting to get marked.
Scratches are only slight and it could be polished out but I thought I'd look at a replacement first. Can anyone advise where I could purchase one from, contact details etc as Seiko say they are discontinued, no surprise given the age.

Appreciate any help

Dave

I had a new crystal replaced on my Bullhead that is from the late 60's in the last three months.
Any decent watchmaker should be able to source one (they come from Germany I am led to believe)

I had to search high and low for a genuine replacement. These are not readily available.

In the end a seller on ebay had one for sale. I note he has had a few since but from memory the cost was circa £30.00. He is based in Hong Kong but his listings appear on the uk site.

Good luck

Haven't looked them up for your particular part but try emailing 10watches or look up and email Yobokies, both can supply a range of crystals.
