Thanks for all the consideration gentlemen. I might just have found one in near mint condition here in Sweden, about the same good shape as my cracked one. Negotiations in progress. Hoping for this one.

Have you looked into getting the cracked element replaced?
No front lens element or front lens group available from Pentax

Is it for the aperture ring?
One reason for sure. I still use the old K2 DMD from time to time.

Thank you everyone. Found one! Not the "close to new condition" as the old one but it works well with just cosmetic flaws and I´m happy with it.

Good to hear that you are happy again. By coincidence one popped up for sale in the Netherlands just the weekend.

Thank you Joost! Well, I looked for awhile and had to grab this one. They don´t show up too often. Great lens.
