Finding crown for Rolex 1675 steel-gold 1977

Hi mates!

I am new in the group, so first let me say Hi everybody! I am a watch collector since I was 17 and I love Rolex since the beginning.

I get a Rolex 1675 steel-gold from 1977 few months ago but there is a problem with the watch. The crown does not screw well so I tried with different replacements but none is working for the moment.

I would like to know if you can help me to find what exactly reference is for the crown of this watch. As I understand is a 530- but I don’t know if has another particular reference as I know 530-0 is for full stainless and 530-8 is for solid gold.

Appreciate help!

Cheers!

The crown and tube would be replaced as a pair to ensure that one is matched to the other, and both sound.

Yes, my question is which reference is the right for the model. As the 530-0 is for stainless I assume that it must be the 530-8 (as I see this one with gold and stainless tube but always with gold crown).

I've got a blistered 530-8 in my parts draw (with tube). Can take a photo of it or something if that helps. Shoot me a message.

Thank you! I saw on EBay a 530-8 with stainless tube. It can work for this model despite 530-8 is for gold?
