126300 bezel change
 
I know this has been covered but I can’t find a definitive answer.

Will the fluted bezel fit onto the smooth bezel 126300? Is the crystal gasket different between the two watches?

Welcome to the forum.

It shows that you are in New York. That city is a hotbed of fake bezels. They are easily available, but, they are not genuine.

If you change the bezel on your 126300 (Datejust) you will then have a Frankenwatch.
Your warranty will be void.
Rolex will NOT service or touch your watch as to is no longer correct.

Even if the fluted bezel did fit Rolex will not fit one.

A 126300 is what it is .. A 126300 and should not be messed with.

Totally aware of the warranty / service / etc

All I’m asking is if it will work.

Completely agree with Charles.

It is however the exact same gasket, so yes, it does fit. To answer your question.
