How easy is it to do a 5-digit aluminum bezel swap?

I've really been wanting a Coke with patina dial and bezel, but thought of picking up a patina pepsi bezel to swap it out on occasion.

Puppies and watches...what's not to like!

Pretty easy. There is a tutorial on here somewhere. I personally would not want to try it myself. I'd have someone professionally do it.
