Crystal for a Bulova Accutron
I am trying to restore a tank style Accutron with a 2313 movement,I have the movement running well but the crystal has suffered some heat damage and impedes the second hand when assembled ....the case number is 7866 on the inside of the back case cover,there are also 3 numbers stamped in green ink
How to I find the crystal number with this information??

Had a look in my Bulova parts book and could not find it. Can you post a picture of inside case back and also of the front of the watch please. Also had a look in my GS crystal books but it only shows a crystal for a Bulova 2312.

Contact ST supply in Los Angeles Mark, they will have it. Their reference is Bulova part#23-7866FL. They do not have a picture on-sight but that should be the one, they will probably send you a picture or give you the dimensions over the phone.
