Black Bezel Insert on Blue Pelagos

Has anybody done this yet? Think it would look really nice with the black ceramic bezel and blue dial!

I know not many want to modify their Tudor Pelagos. Maybe somebody could do a photoshop?

Cheers!

*Edit: Did my own quick MS Paint modification!

It will look like a Rolex "shark" with the blue dial and black bezel.

The shark has a blue bezel/black dial. I want the opposite!

You're right, my mistake.

It will look like this (picture from the modified Rolex topic).

I've seen it done with the Seiko Sumo, which made made interested to see it on the Pelagos.

Made my own edit in MS Paint, what do you think? I like it because the blue Pelagos dial appears more matte than the Rolex.

Imho a Pelagos 'shark' would look nicer than a 'reverse shark' (a 'krahs'??)

I like it, but I'm more impressed that you could do that in MS Paint.

How would it look vice versa, black dial with blue bezel?

This is an awesome looking mod. First time to see it and I really like it. Does this start off as a regular SS sub or a WG Smurf?
