Icon5 Exp II bezel conversion to GMT II bezel?

I didn't think this was possible but maybe a CW can chime in?

Interesting. I actually like it. If Rolex did a white dialed GMT or Sub I would buy one tomorrow.

I am considering doing this myself and have been watching ebay (and TRF) for the parts. Not a watchmaker, but I'm pretty sure you need a Sub/GMT crystal retaining ring, washer, click spring, bezel, and insert. Even with used parts, the price starts to add up!
