I will disagree with you regarding the screw down crown

 

The older Rolex 6238/6239/62363/6265daytonas still have their crowns intact on most of them, same comment goes with Britscar/Jenny Sealab/Haste Carribean Deluxe/Ollech & Wajs Astrochron ref 2003 diving chronos. All were made with enough solid screw line threads to last decades. Unless the owner is absolute a careless person then yes the screw line threads can be damaged. But if well cared the system is far superior to the panerai crown lever system by all means.The panerai isn't a tool watch but the Rolex Sea Dweller and the Plo Prof were both tool watches with screw down crowns, the plo prof having an extra lock despite the screw downcrown to make sure never gets in the case
