How to find/replace a glass crystal

[leehuff]

I have an Elgin keywind/front keyset, open face PW. The case # is 647909 Newport Coin, 18 size. Movement # 4437044. It has THICK beveled crystal that I need to replace. How do I go about finding one? (Anyone here collect old crystals?) When I do get it, how do I remove the old/install the new?

I believe that there is a company by the name of Cazadero Watch Crystals that produces glass crystals.
