Q on Speedmaster 125 Dial Change

 

Hi,

I just bought a new Speedmaster 125 Dial NOS.  I am going to swap out the old dail on my Speedmaster 125 with this NOS dial.   I would like to know, whether it is a hard job to change the dial on this watch or is it best to send the watch back to Bienne for a dial change or a normal watchmaker would be able to do the job? 

A few photos of my Speedmaster 125.

Any help on this subject would be very much appreciated.  Thanks.

Hi MonkeyMagic8 The watch looks great . Why would you want to swap out that dial ? Any watchmaker worth his salt should be able to swap the dial out for you. But again I would not open this watch.... Good Hunting Bill Sohne

I would leave it too - looks great!

And if the new dial is truly "NOS" its likely doesn't glow any more either. If it's a luminova dial of more recent manufacture, swapping it out would destroy the originality in my opinion. If you must have glowing lume, a watch of more modern manufacture ...
