Keep your watch the way it is. The bezel on the left does not look as rich and dynamic.

Hey guys,

Loving this mods thread. I was thinking about a BLNR but I wanted to change the whole bezel to be blue rather than blue and black.

Anyone done it? Anyone mocked it up in Photoshop? Where could this be done? I assume you can't buy an all blue bezel.

No all blue bezels available for the GMT 2, unless you went for aftermarket (non-Rolex) parts which I wouldn't recommend.

Not a huge difference but I think it just makes it a little more understated.

What do you think?
Like it. can you post more photos. I have the same watch and anxious to do anything with it !!!

I'm now thinking of modding my 114060 and would like to add some orange to it in keeping with my other watches. Could anyone here direct me to a retailer who would have an orange seconds hand for the 114060?

Nice lookin' Dweller. Older one too! The red sweeper is really sharp in a black watch.

I had my Dweller DLC coated as well (see post above) but not the bracelet, though I wish I had just done it all at once.
