Bob,
The handwritten Bill of Sale appears to be a private transfer between the Watches original Owner to a W. E. Morelock and not a Retail Sale.
The original Owner being an Edward Gaddis, as witnessed.
The cost to repair your watch was very reasonable - over here in the UK I can expect a labour charge of $120 plus parts.

There are 5 or 6 crystals that will fit the AA models. All are 21.6 x 17.6mm. Wish I could tell you more but I've misplaced the catalogue with the AA crystals listed. I'll send an update when I find it.
All of the following are cylinder flat top type and look just like the one on the subject watch. They should also fit the "R" variant.
BB CX2166A glass
Perfit HC215/6 glass
G-S CX769FT plastic
SUC RS575T plastic

Shawn, all of the crystals that you listed are military type. The subject watch takes a flat bottom crystal.

Hey Darren,
I understand that, however the person asking the crystal question says he has an AA model but is not model specific. All of the crystals I listed are for or will fit various AA models, not the AA "W" model which is the subject watch shown.
