WG SkyDweller dial
I have a desire to get a WG SkyDweller on a black Rolex leather band. However, at the time those were offered, the dials were Arabic and Roman, neither of which I care for on the SD. My choices seem to be buy an all WG SD and take off the bracelet and change it for a band (this ties up about $10K in a bracelet not in use) OR buy a WG on leather band and have the dial changed to one with batons. Can anyone tell me the likely probability for getting a dial change on a PM SD?

I thought Rolex would change a dial if it was new.

Some are still in supply chain
My local AD has a brand new for sale, act before they disappear. It looks good with the dial it has. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

.
During period 2017/2018 (after Basel 2017 and before the WG SKyD was discontinued), the stick dials issued with SS models were all 3 available for WG models as an addition to the Roman and Arab dials. Just try find the 326139 you're looking for. I'm pretty sure there's an AD somewhere that have still one in its stock. .

I have seen few WG (blue and black) in both Ginza and Yokohama in Sept. It has been there for a while (I saw it first time in April). So you can try to call them if needed |

Saw that but am I the only one that thinks it looks like a ss placed on a strap? Color / patina or wg I guess would differentiate but not worth it to me. |

A bit of topic , but I tried on a YG with black stick dial the other day, leather band. Did not expect to like it, wow was I wrong.
It is on my list now. Perfect watch to go with a suit. Good luck with the hunt, the stick dials nail it so its worth chasing. |
