Rolex RSC will do a Dial swap? And will they provide the dial?

Perhaps one of these, according to the sales lady at Rolex it depends on your skin colour. She did not recommend green for me, said it's more for olive skin. Personal favourite is blue.

I believe the blue is darker that these pictures most of the time when outside of Rolex showroom spotlights. Had a blue YM before and it was very dark most of the time unless it was bright sun or light. However, very beautiful.

Depends on what other color dials you have!
I’m a huge fan of rolex blue dials however if you want to be unique, I would do olive!

I think you mean please *advise*
My *advice* would be to pick whatever color / combo you like. I prefer sticks to Romans. |

Your pic cuts off the dial I’m most interested in- meteorite and diamond markers.

Meteorite & baguette is the nicest IMO, and if you're already swinging a lot of dough on a watch, better make it count then.

That's the one part I don't like. It would drive me crazy to not know which marker is the correct one for timing. Everyone has different likes, that's what makes things fun. The blue you picked with stick markers would be my choice.

Also the olive green is nice, but not as nice as the 34mm olive green from the oyster perpetual IMO, because it is roman indexes and lacks the orange dots in the corner.

Probably blue but green would be the best choice. It looks amazing and no other watch in the lineup has anything similar to it. Total standout.
