Jocke, your modded Datejust is one of the coolest Rolex watches I've ever seen.

I always enjoy it when you post pix of it.

Wanted something dressier back several years ago so I added a YG Yachtmaster bezel to my Serti TT Sub. Looked great!

How fortuitous to see this! My humble '78 SS DJ is at RSC (Dallas, TX) to repair an erratic date wheel. While it's there would it be possible to get AR coating on the cyclops? Or is that a pure custom request? My near vision isn't the greatest and I'm particularly troubled with reflections on the cyclops. Yeah, I know what the date is. Usually...

I changed the date wheel to red a few years ago on my YM, just on the strength of Locke's photos.
