Here’s the thing. It was a common practice among jewellers and dealers to swap out dials, hands, bezels etc to suit a customer’s preferences. So it can be extraordinarily difficult to determine whether these watches are the same as when they left the factory.
These changes do not have much effect on value/price.
The big questions are whether the swaps are genuine Rolex replacements, and whether you like the way that the watch may have ended up.
I am not a huge expert on these, but I have a few, and don’t see any concerns with this one.
