Nice, looks like they mod the white gold dial and hands to the SS version?

Yeah, spot on. I know the reason these dials are not on all Daytonas for differenciation reasons of metal composition, but don't you just wish the options are available for SS models too?

Guess a poor man like me would have to stick to Tudor Chronos and Tudor 79190 Blue Sub

Difficult mod to do as it is difficult to get the dial and hands.

Terra deterrence, don't hack the Tudor as they are great watches on their own rights.
