Ladies Yachtmaster 168622 35mm

Four years ago I bought the platinum dialled Yachtmaster for my wife. The truth is, she struggles to see the time with the platinum background. Was there another dial colour for that watch? I have had my OP Date re-dialled and I know Rolex will do it. I知 just wondering if anyone knows what other colours are available?
Thanks

I remember that thread from four years ago, Don. Man, where does the time go?

I am not aware Rolex can do what you are asking, but the best way to find out may be to contact Rolex Canada directly to find out. My AD used to contact them on my behalf when I had questions about things in general. Their service department is top notch from what I remember. Good luck.

Thanks Eric! Nice to hear from you. I will call them. I知 afraid platinum is the only dial for the stainless version of that watch. We all know they won稚 put a dial from a two tone or anything else in. Worst case scenario, I値l get her something else and sell, (or keep), the Yachtmaster.

Sounds like you got it figured out, buddy. Good luck.

My wife has exactly the same watch and absolutely adores it. It really is a stunning piece. When the new rhodium dial replacement came out she went to try it but much preferred her platinum dial. She痴 never mentioned it not being legible but I suppose it depends on your eyes (mine are poor but hers are good)
