Face change
Hi there, haven't been around much lately, but see that all on the TRF are still up to the usual shenanigans.
I was wearing my TT datejust the other day (usually wear my Subdate) & thought that it might look better, and updated, if I changed the face from gold to white. Anyone know if you can buy just a face, without sending it away to Rolex, etc.? I have a great local watchmaker that could swap out faces, if I could find one. Thanks, gha |

You would have to go to a non RSC USA Service watchmaker.
I know there is one in Chicago and San Francisco i have seen posts about. Youa re able to buy dials....but deal with a reputable house if you don't want an aftermarket or fake.
