18k Gold 1969 1601 BROKEN

On holiday. Cleaned my watch, put it up on the counter in a dishrag to let it dry. My 6 year old lept up on the table the following morning to grab the towel. Rolex hit the floor. Now, the crown comes completely off when I unscrew it. Looks like the stem is broken?

Any advice? Where on EARTH can a stem be found for this. In the end, will prob take it DIRECTLY to Rolex.

Welcome to the Forum!

Many competent watchmakers in your area. Not a difficult thing to replace nor should the price to do so. Rolex will charge quite a bit, maybe consider another option.
