See Through Back
I've always felt slightly cheated that I can't see the beautiful movements on my Sub and Daytona.
A glass back of some discription would do the trick. Are they available - or am I dreaming? |

They are available through after market sources. Don't ever take your Rolex back to RUSA with a see through back on it. You'll lose the back and wind up with a bill for replacing the correct back. Maybe RUK has a more lenient policy about doctered watches. I would check with them before sending it for servicing.

It's possible. Some members here have swapped out the backs to that they could view the movements.

You would void the guarantee by doing it, but anyway there are places where you can have it done, if you don't want/dare to DIY.
PM me if you want the site address.

The new Prince 5440's are the only Rolex I know that comes from the factory with a see through back. I really like the EverRose model
