Looking for black arabic dial w/white numbers for a 116200
just bought this watch today from a dealer (haven't had the guts to tell the wife yet...) and I'm looking for the black dial version to swap out as it's a bit too bling with the silver dial
Anyone know where I can get one - don't want to buy from rolex as the dealer I bought it from will swap dials for me for free Am based in the UK |

Nice watch.
If I were you I'd get it done at Rolex. Then you'll have an all authentic Rolex watch which is so very important. Any jewelery store can do it if they have the dials but I'd steer clear from them. |

wow got to love rolex, I spoke to the main london service centre and as the watch is a Z model so brand new, the lady said they would only charge £50 installation fee and I could have any dial I liked for another £230!!
She is going to show me a selection of dials and I can choose one in the flesh, what service, how good is that! |

If you're happy, I'm happy! Nice to see they didn't require you to get a full service, but, it makes sense, since it is a new watch after all. Enjoy the new dial. Post pics! |

yeah they clearly know and accept that users want flexibilty to customise their watches
Given I can choose before buying I'm going to look at the black & blue arab conc dials, a black romain sunbeam and a black stick dial |
