Icon10 Rolex lume colour

Hi, does anyone know if Rolex can change the lume colour on the hands when a watch is serviced, or if not can they change the hands? If so, any idea of cost? Thanks.

I've never heard of this being done, so I'm going to 'No'...

Yes, you can ask ROLEX to change the hands, but not the color of the hands, eg, from green lume to blue lume ...

Rolex will only change the hands if needed to whatever the model number of your watch is. And it will be the same colour lume thats used and appropriate to that model.

Depends on the model. The Datejust II with the rhodium dial and blue arabic numbers have blue lume whilst the hands have green lume.

For the most part I think the datejusts have green lume.
