Thanks again guys... On a flight to SoCal so will keep this short and check in after! Thanks for the positive notes, I'm by much of a modder with anything other than my cars, but this as said is factory done and approved and looks updated. I highly suggest it for an older rubberclad, etc were it would prob look amazing as well.
Was 338 dollars all said and done |

That doesn't seem too expensive at all. I was expecting more.
It does look great though - I always wondered why they didn't do it in black to start with....I think you will start a trend! |

Looks amazing!!!! Glad you did it. Black date wheels looks so much better and current. Well done! Enjoy that beauty. Now I want a BB with black wheel.
Mike, you might want to swap the wheel on yours.

Nice upgrade Martin. My friend actually put Ti / SS plots on his Bee and it added a nice contrast to the watch.

Looks great, the white date wheel always seemed out of place to me. Enjoy!

Once again, thanks guys :)
I hope I've encouraged the same for some of you haha.. I think it really updates and suits the look for a lot of the older or even new Roos with the off white date wheel! Always was an eye sore to me Mike, what A/R coating service? I didn't request any but it looks great? |

Terrific mod, Martin; subtle, yet still readily apparent.
Love it! Regards, Adam |

My rubberclad just went in for service. For under $400 I'm definitely going to put the black datewheel on. Glad to know that its possible.
