Does this watch exist with fluted bezel?

[sneed12]

Buying myself a present, just landed a new job.

I want one just like this but with fluted bezel. Do they not exist? If not I'll buy two and swap the guts...

Hmmmm... You could always ask the dealer you are purchasing from if they will sell you a spare fluted bezel. That would be an easier swap than cross transplanting guts from one to the other

BTW, congrats on the new job!

I wonder if you can get a fluted bezel non ebay as well, they are apparently made of silver dont know if theyd be more shiny.

The watch pictured looks like a Day-Date II; I don't know if any of the aftermarket suppliers have any of the larger bezels for these models yet...

Changing bezels that are pressed in goes well about 50% of the time; the other half I nearly cut off a finger (I use the razor blade method, don't have a bezel remover).

I think I'd be more comfortable uncasing and swapping movements.

Hmmmm... for removing bezels, just slot the razor in to start a gap. From there, you can use a blunt edged blade like an old butter knife to span the gap and eventually work it off.

Much safer that way...

That's exactly what I do, my friend. You underestimate my clumsiness and ability to stab myself with things.
