Can a sports watch be converted to a dress watch?

Hey guys,

I just got my Rolex Air-King-Date 5701 back from RSC and decided to do something different with it.

I decided to switch out the two-toned oyster bracelet with a black crocodile leather strap.

Now some of you may be aware the Air-King has one of the most complex histories of any Rolex sports model and is known for its robustness/reliability. Some even called it the "warrior watch"!!!!!!

That said, can this sports model be converted to a dress watch or would this be considered a "faux pas" to the purists?

I believe it looks stunning and can definitely look great in any formal occasion...

Thoughts?
