I'm waiting until after the holidays to send mine in. I was told it had to be sent in before they would say. I'll bump the thread when I find out more info.

My RSC just told me my blue dial ready. Just have to bring my BLRO. Swap will be for a fee.

Have any of the "Don't know yet, waiting to hear" crowd received an answer back from their AD? It would be great if we could update the numbers and hopefully hear of some success stories.

Just curious. Why asking the AD instead of Rolex Service Centre? In HK and SG, people always send their Rolex to RSC for repairing and servicing as they worry about the aftermarket parts are used by outside service company.

I think in the US, one had to go through their AD. Not sure about other countries.

In my case I called RSC Dallas and they directed me to my AD but only after telling me I had to wait 5 years until the watch was out of warranty. I called my Ad and they eventually got it sorted. Other countries may have different procedures.

I read somewhere about an AD in Spain doing it. Think is was in Madrid, but he bought the watch with that as a requisite. They also let him keep the black dial.

For those of you who got a new card stating blue dial, did they change the date too? Change name of AD if you had a different AD send it in?

Thanks in advance.

I'd be much more into the steel BLRO if it had the blue dial. I don't think the black/red/blue combo is a good one.
