Is change of dial possible?

Does anyone know if it’s possible to get dial changed on Calatravas? I have a 5296r and am wondering if it’s possible to get my regular dial replaced with sector dial.

Thanks

i will be quite surprised if it is possible. Dial changes are quite frowned upon by PP...

I don’t believe that is possible since the two watches have different serial numbers. 5296R-001 vs 5296R-010

I don’t think so or everyone will want to swap a green 5711 dial, especially as it wasn’t a limited edition.

Dial replacement can be done by Patek during a service. But a dial swap to a different type of dial is usually not done. In special circumstances for a special collector, it is possible. But those collectors are people Patek knows on a personal basis and Patek would do as a favor for these VIP clients.

*I meant to say two different reference numbers not serial numbers
