Many Rolex enthusiasts might feel customizing any model
of one of the most storied names in horology is a sin against fine watchmaking.
We'd bet a good portion of those purists might change their minds on seeing
what British customizing outfit Pro Hunter has done with the Rolex
GMT-Master II ref 116710LN.
Pro Hunter transformed the GMT into a world timer enhanced by a matte-black coating over the original stainless steel, converting a conventional Rolex into something that looks like the preferred gear of the world's wealthiest special forces operator.
The Rolex World Time Stealth edition watch is an automatic that runs on the watchmaker's original 3186 caliber. This is a versatile movement that can handle two timezones and hold its power in reserve for two days.
Pro Hunter added a 24-hour floating scale to the dial's rim
and reworked the ceramic bezel so that it now lists cities in all 24 world time
zones. This set up permits the wearer to easily calculate the time in any of
those cities at a glance and makes for a true one-of-a-kind Rollie.
Some extra details from the customizers:
·
Available in both Stealth (black) and Original
coatings
·
Oyster, flat three-piece link bracelet
·
Scratch-resistant sapphire crystal, with the
classic Rolex Cyclops lens magnifying the date
·
Water-resistant to 100 meters or 330 feet
·
Case backs have been signed by Pro Hunter and
engraved with numbers 001 - 100
Dedicated world travelers and luxury watch fans who have no
issues with slick modifications like the Pro Hunter’s new Rolex World Time
Stealth edition need to jump on this opportunity if they seek a chance to wear
a watch worthy of a super spy.
