square profile oring or a square gasket?
OP
The watchmaker never said, but
as the watch body is circular (obviously!) I assume that the sealing is circular too,
but it has box shape as cross section. Square profile, that is.

They might be what's called an X Ring, or they could be an oring which has been squashed until it took the shape of the space it was in.
Orings are quite cheap, but they get cheap in volume, not individually, so it might be hard to order a few to throw in there to see what fits best. For something expensive that's hard to figure out, it might be worth it to look into whether the manufacturer sells one.
