Possibly this one originally had a special "dust proof" crown with a sliding spigot that is held by the case. I have two Quadrons and a Curvex 330 with this type of crown and have seen many more examples. You should check the opening where the stem goes through, which is typically quite large for this type of crown.

There is one caveat though and that is that these are all US produced Wadsworth cases and yours has a Swiss case. One thing is for sure, the thickness of the crown should be reduced by half... Very Happy

Images are seller's pictures of my watches. Haven't had the time to do better ones, but I think you'll get the picture.
