Non America’s Cup SMP 2230.50, original had a solid 18k WG bezel. The dial had applied metal lume plot surrounds and used to be available as a spare part so a few swapped it into their printed plot SMPs. It makes the SMP look more like the 2201.50 PO, which is what the bezel above is probably from btw. I believe you also have to swap crystals to make that bezel fit, so it’s not easy or cheap, most stop at the dial.
I used to like the dial swap a lot but now think it maybe blings the watch up too much. It also makes it much harder to sell vs a straight 2254, or original non AC as there is a much smaller market for a modded watch. One sat on TZ-UK at 2254 money for months recently.
I considered it but went down the route of getting a 42mm PO to go with my unmolested SMP.
