JLC date wheel swap

Was looking at he Sector Dial JLC MCD, but can’t stand the light blue date. The rest of the dial is black minus the small few blue markers. Do you think JLC would be willing to swap the date wheel for the normal MCD wheel?

How about replacing the blued steel handset with matching black steel syringe handset too? I assume you're referring to the black markers except the 5 minute blue markers, right ?The sector dial itself is two tone satin opaline and brushed finish, technically silver

Anyway you could put forward a request demanding a change to the normal MCD wheel but I'm afraid you gonna receive a reply letter from JLC HQ in Le Sentier , Vaud, Switzerland ...say in 6 months...that goes something like this
" Excusez -Moi Monsieur ? We are a bunch of purists watchmakers here and don't do customizations. Just get the MCD with the standard dial option OR Look Elsewhere ! Why , the nerve of some people...... "

Megan's Alternative : Omega DeVille Hour Vision Cal 8501 (It's technically still a sector dial)

The answer is pretty simple. Buy both, and do it yourself.
