Talking steel here, not gold, btw.
Not a problem myself had two manual Rolex watches from the late 1960s they got wound up daily for decades and the had screw down crowns. My sons own then now and in all those years of wearing just two crown tube replacements and one winding crown. Things like crown tubes are always replaced at normal routine service, and sometimes the winding crown, as they are just normal serviceable replacement items.
