New Jubilee Dial?

Im thinking about getting one of the Jubilee (rolex rolex rolex) style dials for my 16220 DJ. Will these dials fit on my watch? And also does anyone have a good source to get authentic rolex dials from? I tried Steve Mullholland here on the forums but he doesnt have what I am looking for. I found this one on ebay: http://cgi.ebay.com/Rolex-Mens-Black...item4a9d0cb60c What do you all think of it?

I finally found the one I wanted on eBay, after Steve could not provide one. I searched the net and found several other jewelers who sell dials, usually more expensive. I paid $240 for a used blue stick dial-the jubilee may be more expensive in general. I thought that was a reasonable compromise between the $100 items that may be aftermarket, and the high priced jewelry stores. Be patient and look for a reasonable price- or make them an offer that you think is fair.

Care to share the other jewlers you found that sell dials? Even if they are more expensive I would still like to look. If posting their name/site is against forum policy please just PM me. Thanks!

Offer him $375-400, a more reasonable figure.

It's a great dial though.

One more question, will I need to get new hands or any other parts in order to make the new dial work, or can I just swap in a new dial and reuse my old hands etc.?
