RSC Crown replacement?

RSC requires crown replacement on 1981 Datejust in order to service watch. Would like to be able to wear the watch daily (belonged to deceased parent and was never serviced before). Seeking thoughtful advice please:

1. How does replacing crown affect collectability of watch?

2. Should I try to find an independent watch repairer to try to preserve the original crown? Concerned about finding someone reliable and trustworthy.

3. How to balance wearability with collectability?

New to this and would appreciate kind responses. Hoping will not need to sell watch and want to preserve value to pass on to relative one day. Thanks!
