They won't sell them to us here in the US unless you want to have your current bezel insert replaced. I have a coke but want to switch to pepsi. Thanks in advance if you would be willing to help.

Remove your current bezel then take it to a dealer.
Tell them you lost it and want to order a pepsi.

**** nay for me. Don't like that dial color combination and hate that red 60 with a vengeance. Let's see what other dial/metal combos they will come up with (+ the 7 or 8 limited editions of course)

What's your opinion on the white dial and rose gold numerals on the 5001? They swore they were never going to do it because it would look too much like the Jubilee. Obviously, they lied.

I'm considering a dial swap, but only if I can bribe someone to let me keep my old dial.

I don't hate it but I don't love it either. I think the black dial is more striking IMO. For silver dial, I think that blue hands are better than gold - and for that matter, I think that the Dornblueth 99.2 is more attractive than IWC's version

Now a black dial with RG hands and markers would be something I could fall for - it's not the 3712 but it's getting close - and we both know how hard to find and desirable that RG 3712 is!
