If I may ask, would it be possible for all Rolex Two Tone Submariners (16613) with the old Matte Blue dials be changed or replaced with the Sunburst Blue dials.?
Thanks.

I believe this can only be done IF the watch was offered with that particular colored dial at the time it was manufactured.

If not, then no RSC won't do it.

You could try and get someone else to do it but there is no guarantee the part would fit.

Didn't the 16613's come with the sunburst dial? I seem to recall that being one of the complaints of the 116613 when it was introduced...a matte dial as opposed to the sunburst.

Should be no problem.

My understanding as well, the original bluesy 16613 had the sunburst dial. They brought our the new ceramic 116613 with the flat blue smurf dial. The soon realized the public wanted the sunburst blue and brought it back on the new 116613
