A good fit for you I reckon.
The Pro hunter Rolex has been widely discussed for many years and of course the affect on warranties, residual value and servicing issues but has anyone taken the plunge with one and your thoughts.
Pure trash.
A good fit for you I reckon.
Forced to take one in pawn a few years ago, was absolutely delighted when the customer came to reclaim it.
Emperor's new clothes, except that fewer people were ever convinced in this instance.
Never be comforted by a high auction price one might have realised in the early days........they're easily manipulated by those so inclined.
Some "celebs" photographed looking awkward wearing one....gifted, or paid for? Wouldn't make me want one either way.
No thanks.
BJs? Online? Not quite the website you were expecting.
Does that get much wrist time from you? Or just kept in the box.Originally Posted by Der Amf
A great choice if you have a lot of money and little taste.

Assume that taste would all change if Rolex themselves ever brought out a DLC model.
The name is a little naff (nothing new with watches) but that's a fantastic looking watch isn't it? What am I missing?
Nothing. If you like the watch, great. I happen to think that's a decent looker too, though I'd never buy one.
However you're making the mistake of trying to rationalise with the Rolex purists - not to be confused with Rolex fans in general.
Ah, my mistake.
Well for the record, I'd have one like a shot, it's a fabulous looking thing.
And also for the record, there's no difference between modding a Rolex and a Seiko, they're both watches, just at different price points.
Will Rolex service a watch that has been modified like that?
I do actually like that, almost a negative of the original.
How do they even do this? Are they owned by rolex or something? Can't be independent surely...?
I would say Pro Shitter
How elegant.
Just file them in the big pile of overhyped crap along with Bamford and Titan Black
No they will not, or honour any warranty.
Owned by Watch Club. As mentioned above Rolex will not touch them.
I agree, I don't understand why anyone would want essentially a second-hand Rolex, with no manufacturer's support at a price that's higher than a new one with full warranty.
Is that the case, or are they made by that chap behind BJs Online?
Indeed. Rolex have had their share of naff designs alongside the great ones.
Really? There are lots of modified watches on here, not that hard to understand why is it?
No, they wont!
edit: sorry, just saw it was already answered.
Most mods on here are tasteful and modest, and personal.
What I don’t understand is buying an already modded second hand watch that isn’t unique at the cost of manufacturer support and at a greater expense then new
The Pro Hunters also suffer from DLC wear, the bracelets and edges get tatty quickly.
