Can someone recommend a place on Long Island where I can get a dial changed?

I have a separate dial for a datejust. I am looking for a place to change the dial on Long Island. I went to Tourneau- they said they wanted to send the watch back to Rolex to get this done. I don't believe the watch needs to go back to Rolex to get this accomplished. Thank you in advance.

Personally, I would send it to rikki in fla. I used someone highly recommended to me for a crystal replacement here on the island, and they put a tiny scratch on the face(hardly noticeable,but I found it and was not happy!) besides waiting 6 weeks to get it back! swore I would never shop again. Rikki comes highly recommended from many on trf. I would give him a call.hope this helps

Any watchmaker at any watch shop can change your dial.. Tourneau is seldom a choice as they are generally a sales outlet without on-site watchmakers.

If it is not a Rolex dial that could have been originally fitted to the watch, no Authorized Rolex Watchmaker will change it, you must seek an independent..

To the OP, please read up on changing Rolex dials if not original to the watch, could save you some headaches down the road...

I bought a dial my friend put in his watch. Same dial from the same manufacturer.

Floorguy- can you please message me who the shop was on Long Island so I make sure not to use them? I would rather not ship the watch out of state.

Thank you for the replies.

Maybe London Jewelers in Manhasset, Angelo is a very kind person.

In case you decide to go there, PM me and I will give you better references...
