Please add as alternative part, as this figure comes with a head with recessed stud in the watch 8020813.

Unfortunately, the system is not set up right now to handle alternate parts for
minifigures. This is a known problem which has existed for many years. I have
hope that the system will be updated at some point to correct issues like this.
Until that time, though, I cannot approve requests like these.

Could you make an entry for the Minifig, with the alternate head, then
set that as an Alternate for the set? I am not sure if Minifigs can be
Alternates.

Ultimately what will very likely happen is that all parts for minifigures will
be included in the inventory of the set and the minifigures themselves will be
inventoried as assembled counterparts. When this occurs the alternate heads
can be listed properly as alternates.

Until that time, however, we're just adding inventory notes to the minifigures
regarding the alternate heads and I will add one to each of these figures before
approving the watch inventory in which they also appear.
