Today I successfully found a workaround for replacing the crown seal on the 6105: I wrapped the stem with teflon tape and added in a little silicone grease and bob's your uncle. I pressure tested it for 5 minutes under 6 BAR and it held like a champ. I don't dive with this one but I am no longer afraid to splish a few splashes on it while washing the dishes. Cheers!

Awesome, teflon tape = watch enthusiast's friend! Useful for lots of watch related DIYs.

I agree, teflon tape is a miracle. Stops leaks, lubricates, and prevents stuff from corroding together!

Could this be used for a screw down crown that no longer works

Quite possible, if you could apply the tape to the threads evenly.
