Not a choice I'd make, and I'm not sure anything but an aftermarket replica would fit correctly. And the value would drop precipitously.
Curious - what do you dislike about the roulette wheel?

I wish they made the roulette wheel for other models of rolex watches as i think they look great,would like one on my Sub and would look good on a Pepsi GMT.

You can buy used authentic date wheels for under $100 on the internet.

I was wondering if all current stick style datejusts have the roulette wheel? I actually really like it alot and wouldn't get a datejust without one...
Does anyone know exactly which models have the roulette wheel? I was told ALL stick dial datejusts (ex. black stick, white stick, blue stick, silver, etc.) Are there any others? Are there any other's that don't?? I am in the market for one so any help would greatly be appreciated! |
