Rolex 16233 tube and crown?

Hi, i bought a rolex datejust 16233 without the tube. The crown was following the watch.

I had some tubes laying around and i wounder og i have the wrong crown? It does not enter the hole in the tube.

A tube for 1601 that i have fit the crown but is to big for the case. the 16233 tube does fit the case but not the crown

What is the ref for the right crown and tube?


Thanks.

Got the new tube, genuine 24-5330-0 tube. Same problem here aswell. The tube fits the case but not the crown. Do I have a wrong crown?

Is the 24-603-3 correct for this tube? Is it 5,3mm? I mesure the crown that I have is 6mm.

If the threads in the crown you have are too big for the 5330 tube , you probably have a 24-600-8 crown

Check these pics.
Here you can see that the crown "neck" won't enter the hole in the tube. It is too big.

What crown is this?

So I need to order a new 24-603-3 crown that will fit this tube and are correct for 16233? Is it a 5,3mm or 6mm?

Thanks for your help.

The pic looks like a 5330 tube on a 600-8 crown..

16233 uses 24-5330-0 tube and 6mm 24-604-8 crown
(24-603-8 is exactly same size just discontinued )

604-8 = all 18k
604-3= 18k cap..
Both are the same size.
