Unfortunately I can only offer sympathy. You aren't likely to get the part out of Hamilton. Have you tried an aftermarket crown of a larger size? A good watchmaker should be able to fix you up and may even have an original Hamilton part on hand. Since the Swiss decided to cease making repair parts available to the trade, if you do find one, prepare yourself for sticker shock.

CousinsUK might have some left over stock before the swatch group cut supply... Also check other material houses.

Do a (Worldwide) search on ebay for hamilton crown and there are plenty so you might find one with the right dimensions. The word 'Khaki' might not be mentioned so don't necessarily focus on that . [Although there is specifically a listing that does: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/HAMILTON-KHAKI-GENTS-WRIST-WATCH-CROWN-NEW/253903214952?hash=item3b1dcf9968:g:esUAAOSwzC9bSMLu].

Alternatively unless you've just got to have a little 'H' on the crown then, as @TexasDon says, you could go for an aftermarket (i.e. generic) one. These can be picked up in just about any size from a site like ebay.
