Dial swap...

Is this a thing? Can you send your DD 40 in to a RSC for a new Style/Color dial? Any Rolex watch?

Opinions seem to vary a bit, depending on what you want….a quick call to RSC would be your best bet (IMHO)

As above. Ask your RSC about a particular swap and let us know what they say.

Got it....

Called them.....100% can be done with ******

1) Watch has to be out of the warranty period, ie cannot switch a 2022 DD40 gold dial and get the green dial for 5 years (or when out of warranty)....

2)Dial wanted, has to be available...If out of stock, they will not make or procure....

I've asked about this and a lot of ADs make you get a full service or have proof of a recent full RSC service if you want a dial swap.

Not sure, as I called an RSC directly and not an AD.

The AD I called apparently has a RSC in house.

Legit or BS? Suspect the former.

A call to RSC will Answer your questions. They usually only do it for a eyesight issue. I was able to swap out a champagne dial for a white dial because I said I couldn't see the hands against the dial.
