Is your movement here? I suspect it is the 8 AE, if so you will want the regular, #134.

I don't know the movement number. I will take it apart if I need to. If it is the 8A movement, would you have the crown?

Open the case and see if it is an 8AE, if it is, I may have what you need.

The 8AE, 8 AH ect of this era combined with this Case uses a dustproof spring Crown.

The first numeral of the Bulova Crown part numbers indicate the Colour.

assuming the 1941 Director has a Pink Case the correct Crown is part # 202

1- Yellow.

2 - Pink.

3 - White.

Class dismissed.

Yes the movement is 8AE . The case is brass in color.

Sorry but I just used the last of my #202 crowns on one of my directors. I will check with another of my sources to see if he has one.
