Fair enough. It makes sense.
What colour dial are you thinking?
Champagne has a timelessness to it and goes with lots of colours. Black is obviously a smart contrast and great on a smart black leather strap, or more casual brown ones.

to be honest I'm going off the idea of replacing the dial... if I did it would probably be like this - https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Original-Rolex-Oyster-Perpetual-DateJust-Dial-in-Silver/253960350760?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2060353.m1438.l2649
my Tudor is black so don't want them to be too alike...
Bracelet-wise I'm going to ask how good/safe the original oyster can be made but might get a leather strap in the meantime... dark brown or maybe light grey suede, or both!

Sorry, misuse of the term - I meant dial swap.
The reason I wanted to sort the dial now is to be able to show it to my father and get his approval, so to speak...
yes you’re correct, my father chose the oyster when it was purchased for him, which he regrets as he has since thought a DJ looks better on the jubilee. He also regrets choosing this watch over a slightly darker grey one that was in another shop across town but didn’t make it back there so took this one.
