Want watchmakers' opinions, please:

I'm wondering what it would take to do this, namely whether it could be done by modding an Explorer II to add the GMT II bezel assembly, or whether one would be forced to go the opposite route, i.e. adding the Exp II hands/dial to a GMT.

Can respond either here or via PM, really thinking of having this done. Thanks in advance!

Duly noted. My opinion is that I own my watch, not Rolex NA, and that I'm therefore free to do with it as I like.

Absolutely no issues with that just against the rules I must play by. Rikki

Understood and no worries, I'm actually more interested in whether it can be done to an Exp or if I'd need a GMT at this point...logistics first, then it's decision time!
