Congrats on the dial and the switch. Way better than buying two of the same piece with different dials. I’ve never understood it.

Way to go !
Did the same a couple of months ago, swapped DJ 41 dial rhodium -> blue, never looked back. (Got to keep the rhodium dial, just in case)

Good move! I think the blue stick dial is the best looking option in the DJ line.

did you ever get the dial swapped? If so, can we get a pic and details of where you got the work done?
