Re: Sub-dials, are they separate from the main dail?

Thanks Darren.

I only ask, as I have seen a watch on the bay, and a subdial is wrongly rotated and is 120 degrees out!!
I wondered if it could be corrected.

: Hi Stewart,
: those subdials (recessed or not) cannot be removed independantly in
: order to be replaced. You cant be the first one to have thought
: about this as over the years i have seen a number of modified
: dials where the seller has tried to have the subdials repainted
: or changed out. There have been some good attempts but the vast
: majority have looked ridiculous. My own opinion - learn to love
: the one's you have, mucking about with them only makes the
: situation worse.
