Submariner Sea-Dweller Deepsea dial swap

Kinda curious if its possible to swap out the dial on say a Cameron DeepSea with a Submariner dial. I like the size of the larger 44mm case but not much choice in the dial/bezel insert category besides black. A blue sunburst dial with matching bezel insert would look sharp.

Probably not advisable. These are two separate references with different dials.
Then there is the loss of value due to any change from the original dial.

They are different sizes so not possible.
