Will the service center in Wilton change the dial color?

If your AD has a Breitling certified watchmaker you are in like flint. He can order the dial and swap them out without the requirement for movement overhaul etc... And if you have a relationship with you AD, you may even get a discount. Definitely the way to go, even if you have to send it to an AD who has a Breitling certified guy.

Not come across that before. I guarantee BUK wouldn't go for anything like that. As Roff said maybe BUSA is easing up a bit.

......but I would assume anyone changing their dial would have a watch already out of warranty - at least I hope so.

Either the watch will not be updated in the BUSA database so the dial won't match the records, or it will be updated in BUSA and there won't be a record of any service. Maybe BUSA is finally starting to lighten up!

It really i as simple as the watchmaker being able to order parts without a long litany of reasons. I have no idea whether BUSA would later refuse to service it without changing the dial color back, but I would assume anyone changing their dial would have a watch already out of warranty - at least I hope so.

In the past it wouldn't have been a warranty issue, it would have been a service issue - 'our records say that watch has a white dial so either pay us to put a white dial in it or we aen't going to touch it'.

Hi I know buk they don't like to change the dial because they like it to be the same as it was bought. But you could try.
