Ah, OK. So perhaps some Yamaha knobs I have may fit (I assume they'll be metric?)

I don’t think the knobs look awful on the goldtop, they just look a better match on the McCarty Tobacco Sunburst.

I am still negotiating about the tone knob that pulls off.

I didn’t know Strings Direct sold guitars?
The fix for the knob is to prise open the slot on the shaft a little further to make the knob fit more tightly. However, the metal the shafts are made of is notoriously fragile and breaks easily which would require a new pot. It's entirely possible (probable?) that the reason the knob is loose is that it's been knocked in the shop and the shaft is already damaged/weakened.
At the very least I want the shop to advise me what to do and agree to cover the cost of replacing the pot if it breaks.

I shouldn't have to stop a knob falling off.

There's nothing spoiling as I'm waiting the arrival of a set of locking tuners before putting my preferred strings on and getting it set up by my local tech.

Guess what?
Of course, they're out-of-stock: https://uk.prsaccessories.com/products/push-pull-tone-pot
I prefer push-push, anyway, so have ordered one of these with a 500k audio taper: https://www.axesrus.co.uk/Medium-Shaft-PushPush-Alpha-Pots-p/medpushpushalpha.htm
Still waiting to hear from the shop...

Great service from Axesrus - my order arrived this morning.
I've not fitted the new pot yet, but I think these gold knobs look far better than the original amber knobs:
I went for the bell knobs - ie. this shape:
I'm wondering whether to stick with the original speed knob shape, but in gold:
