I am thinking about doing this on a submariner no-date. The crown should be on the left side after the modification. Before I void the warranty for this modification, does anyone know if it can be done?

Can't be done, the problem is with the dial and the position of the feet and that it has to sit in a particular position

Is it that the dial is not round or are the dial feet not 180 degree opposite to each other?

PhilM · 20 April 2011, 01:13 AM

No the dial is round, that part is fine, but the feet are not at say 3 and 9, they will be in diffrent locations.

Edit: You will need to check on the particular model, as I'm not 100% sure.

Although Rolex will not touch the watch once you have done this.

It can and has been done but better left to an expert.

Sorry but it really depends on the Sub reference, as not all have the same dial configuration.

The OP hasn't even posted this.

I am looking at a 14060M. I understand this would void the warranty so has to make sure that it can be done first.

Here's a pic from another thread, although this is a 14060:
