Sorry for not elaborating, I mean the even dates are red and odds are black. I believe this is ok on some other Rolex models? just not the newer DATEJUST

This is called Roulette and from what I believe it's only available in Datejust models 1162XX. You would have to do your research.

Roulette date wheels on the date just will be dependent on dial configuration on the gen.

Got it from Sead. I should be getting it tomorrow. Waited 2-3 weeks as JF has low on stock, but when he got it, he send QC and shipped it right when I gave him the green light. If ETA is accurate, it took less than a week from China to Canada.

Apologies i I know its roulette. Here's what I ment. The aftermarket wheel I found was for rollie turnograph 116261 and some other 5 digit models which share the 3135 movement. The roulette is reversed.

That's correct.

If it helps anyone, heres a screen shot from Rolex dial catalog which shows which dials would have two colour date display on 36mm DATEJUST

Don't think this is accurate, I've seen the standard Pink and Silver Dials 116xxx in several UK AD's and they all had roulette DW's.

That's interesting, all I know is that page is from Rolex's 2017-2018 dials catalog, I'm not sure how much more accurate you can get? [emoji848]not that I'm disagreeing with you, I'm just telling you where the info is from.

It is correct, it is from the rolex catalogue. However, like with all luxury watch manufacturers your piece can be fully customised. As standard, for example, the 6 digit DJ comes with LEC no AR, but I've seen them on display with AR, so I don't doubt that you've seen configurations that are out of line with the above.

Rolex? Customize? Those two words don't go well together. They want everything OE

I'm not trying to ruffle anyone's feathers here, although you should be able to go off Rolex Official documentation, you can't, it appears anything goes. Its best to go and look in an AD, see whats there and then base a build on that.

These may have been older stock, but I doubt that Mappin & Webb, Fraser Hart and Robinsons would have all purchased their stock before this Catalogue was produced, I looked at 7 different watches.

It's for the 3135, so it should fit, but having only installed a Gen DW, I can't vouch for the quality of WSO's DW in comparison. Their other parts are pretty good with one exception (16660 Bezel assm)

These are the DW I spoke about earlier, the odds are black and evens red. Incorrect way round for these ARF DATEJUST

No feathers ruffled man, the catalog merely shows what standard watch configs come with or without roulette DW from factory. As mentioned before an AD should be able to order any config.
