Will RSC change dials?
I just bought a GMT this month 16750 and I would like it to glow again. I'm never really planning on getting rid of it so. My question is if I send it to get serviced and they put a new dial in it can I get a different variation that came for this model. I wasn't able to get a matted dial but really like them. Can I request they put one in at service? I would also like to change the bracelet to a Jubilee. What do you guys think should I just try to trade up and keep saving. But then there's the thing of me wanting it to glow again.....

U say you will never sell it, but u wanna change the dial and bracelet? I think your answer is in your second to last sentence, my friend.

No, they will not likely put in a matte style dial. They will put in another Luminova gold surround dial.
There is nothing wrong with up-dating your dial although in the vintage market folks will pay a bit more for an original dial. They will also sell you a Jubilee bracelet since it was available for that model. The price is around 1,400 bucks for it..

Which service center should I contact? I'm in Florida so I'm shipping it out either way.

You should maybe get another model. 16710 or something modern. That will surely glow.

It makes Zero sense to change this dial to a new Luminova , the tritium is somewhat collectable and you'll spend 800 for service and 600 for the dial
not to mentioned what you paid for the watch. Sell yours buy a newer model with Luminova and it will likely be a wash

You can buy another dial that glows as well as bracelet off this and other forums.
