Ever heard of Titan Black?

So I walked into a jewelry store and spotted a number of watches which have been modified by a company called Titan Black. Apparently they modify watches by applying a diamond like carbon to the bracelet and cases. They had APs and Rolexes. I don't care for it. One BLNR caught my attention because it seems to have a green GMT hand. The words GMT Master II are also in green which I found odd. I took a side by side shot with my BLNR on the left and the Titan black on the right. Could this be a Franken-watch that began life as a reference 116710 and then had a BLNR bezel placed on top of it?

The store is on Lincoln Rd. in Miami Beach.

Yes. I've personally dealt with the owners (brothers) Ben & Luke Waite. Great guys and a great company.

That black BLNR with the green looks terrible IMHO.

yeah looks like they just switched the bezel, the dial is the LN dial.
