Daytona metal on ceramic bezel?

[chigganv]

Hello,


Is it possible to put a metal bezel: https://www.time4diamonds.com/parts/bezels/rolex/rolex-gmt-master-ii-steel-bezel-6664.html (EXAMPLE!)
On a ceramic daytona: https://puretime.io/daytona-116515-...ack-rubber-strap-sa4130-free-extra-strap.html (EXAMPLE!)

I have tried searching and I'm not looking to be "spoon feed". I got a specific question.
Maybe the cases are shaped different?

They should fit, case is same
I am no expert but i think dial is different

 

[QueTip]

Bezel should fit, yep

I hope so because I'm doing exactly the same. It does on gen so no reason why not....theoretically

I advise doing some more reading about RG Daytona reps before spending that kind of money on a bezel. There have been several reports of the rep RG plating wearing thin and/or discoloring, very early on.

I will try to find some of those posts to link here.

guru recently used a new Black 116500 Ceramic Bezel Noob V2.2 donor to build this 116520 with gen parts...

And then he sold the Noob dial and bezel... so yes, it will work.
