Potential gap issue between crown and case
You should always see a gap. (especially at high magnification) The gasket is in the crown and seals against the top of the tube, if the crown contacts the case the seal cannot work. I have noticed that all Rolexes with crown guards have that slight gap, whereas Rolexes without crown guards do not have that gap and the crown rests on the case itself. Bad advice, by design a push-pull crown will stop water for going inside when pushed in. A screw down crown won't and you can clearly see a gap when pushed in but not .

Gap between case and screw down crown
I recently purchased a 16750 GMT. Love the watch and the seller was fantastic to work with. I've noticed that their is a very very small gap (probably 1-2 threads at most) between the crown and case in the closed position. I'm used to seeing this with other Rolex watches. I happened to notice that the non screw down crown does not seat completely against the side of the case. This seems not to be a phenomena unique to my watch. A quick google search yielded quite a few examples of the same “issue,” but not in all cases. I have noticed that all Rolexes with crown guards have that slight gap, whereas Rolexes without crown guards do not have that gap and the crown rests on the case itself.

The gap between the crown and the case seems a lot bigger than on my B dial. Its big enough that it kinda looks a little odd. Its roughly the thickness of my finger nail, so I can push my nail in there without dislodging the crown. Is there meant to be a small gap between the crown and case when the crown is fully tightened? Want to be sure it’s tightening correctly before submerging the watch in water. I cannot move or twist the crown with any amount of force. I even tried using a pair of needle nose pliers and, I still can’t get it to budge. I examined the crown with a loupe and, on fuher inspection; I saw a sticky white substance in the gap between the crown and watch case.
After years of polishing the recess is gone so that first (bottom) thread is exposed. Tightening the tube any further is strip the thread on the case and/or crack the case tube. It’s down as far as it will safely allow. The old Rolex 6000 case tube was a shorter but they have long been discontinued. The last NOS one I’ve seen was 5-6 years . As title suggest, I found in Rolex models, especially Explorer II. Even screwed to the end, there's still space/gap in between. Same even spotted in Ref. 1655, the vintage one. Is this a specific design? Or simply a fault? Really can't see the purpose of it.
