Bamford x Asprey Rolex SkyDweller and Explorer II
What do you think? I wouldn't buy one myself but they do look pretty cool

Just aweful, every single watch in the article for that matter. Wouldn't wear it if they were given to me.
Hence, I don't mind custom works but these are just not to my taste. |

For the Exp2, OK if you like that sort of thing, but not for me.
What I simply don't understand at all is PVDing a Sky Dweller. I'd love to know if someone actually ordered that watch or if they made that on spec. Either way, that makes no sense to me at all.

Crimes against the "Crown"
The finish on the dial and hands looks very poor (apart from looking hideous!!) I cannot understand why anyone would pay way over the retail for this to be done (badly) to a beautiful watch. |

I wouldn't even let them pay me to alter my watches like that, no less pay a premium for theirs.

I got one of those as a text from a friend that said "sickest Rolex ever"...I didn't even begin to argue because to him it was. For me...not my style, but someone will buy them and love it..

I like it. Of course something like this only works in large portfolio of watches.

The purple color makes it look like a cheap fake. Moreso on a sky dweller. Disrespectful
