I have the exact same issue. Need help for this.

what is the possible solutions? Should I try to pinched the tube first or order a replacement part from a TD?

Opt 1 - Which part should I pinched? Can anybody show it with picture?

Opt 2 - Which parts shoul I order?

Same issue for me, considering swapping out gen crown and tube but not sure if that will fit. Has anyone tried this or is the best bet the TD route for a VF? Thanks!

I use Rock N Roll Bike Chain Lube when I get a new watch. I put a little on the crown threads and have never had one seize.

The way I know it works is I had some case screw threads start to seize up. I put some of this on and worked the threads back and forth a few times and all was good.
