Yes, I bought a brand new white dial SS in January 2014 from a TRF seller, then bought the brand new panda dial from a trusted TRF seller, paid £40 to a rolex approved watchmaker to change the dial, put on a Thomas Preik sapphire caseback and pressure test and I'm delighted with the result:

Looks great! I got my Daytona in February this year. I am considering putting a Panda or a Silver dial on it once I get tired of the white.
