For some reason, I thought it was a black body. I have chrome knobs too if
needed. The center screw comes in different head thickness'. It's primary
purpose is to adjust the rewind lever up and down so it lays flush with the
top of the knob.
I've had good luck drilling out knobs with broken screws. The drill USUALLY
self centers (DOH)! Drill with a 1.7mm drill, then retap to 2mm. Knobs were
made to take either 1.7mm or 2mm screws (not sure which is older) but it's
safe making them all 2mm.
