Welcome to the forum

I am no expert, but I don’t think you can just screw it on.

I guess it depends if the stem is still there or if you’re missing the crown AND stem.

I own a submariner and I’ve seen videos of people removing the crown.

They unscrew the crown and then release both crown and stem from the movement.

I just saw online and it looks like the crown and stem are also separable. It looks like the crown is screwed onto the stem and glued on.

That’s why I say, it depends if you’re only missing the crown.

Or if you’re missing crown and stem.

My 2 cents.
