··Omega Qualified WatchmakerI wonder if there would be any difficulty swapping a non-jeweled bridge for a jeweled version, as on the rotor bridges between the 563 & 565? If so, that would definitely lead one to conclude it was the bridge with the caliber & serial # that was swapped.
But I haven't the foggiest idea so would love to hear an opinion from the mechanics here. 😉

Yes you can exchange them - the pivot sizes for the wheels inside the automatic device are the same regardless if they are for a jeweled or non-jeweled version. Not sure about the post just made talking about removing just 2 screws, but yes that's step 1. Then you remove the screw holding the oscillating weight, and remove the 3 screws that hold the 2 halves of the automatic device together, then you can swap bridges.
