Not sure if it's an OEM model and not modded... but seems like for somebody that can't get their hands on a Hulk?

Is this a Bamford mod? Looks like aftermarket dial and hands with PVD coating.

Are the thinkers being called out over their thoughts?

There are plenty of Rolex watches around that have been DLC or PVD coated.

They do not come from the Rolex factory that way.

That looks too much like a Citizen Eco-Drive that I own ... :) BTW .. that ECO-DRIVE is what got me into watches ... that's why I still own it and sometimes wear it ...

It's a 116400GV coated in PVD by another company. It also has a custom dial.

Rolex never made "blacked-out" watches
