Well, "BATMAN" is cheesy. But I like the fact that you can see some parts of the movement and the date wheel. So, it's a kind of skeletonized watch. The watch overall is just OK.

If the dial says Rolex and its not a rolex dial or a modified Rolex dial... it has crossed from being a mod and to being fake.
If its is a Rolex dial(or started out that way), then i have no issue. I still don't like the watch though.

Now we can all agree that the term Batman to point out a watch must be discontinued

Whole watch looks fake to me. Bezel markings are wrong. LEC too visible, endlink fitment. You'd have to have sand in your head to buy it basically.

It's an LN with a fake BLNR bezel and dial, and that's if it's even a real LN (and I have my doubts).
It's hard to tell from one picture. Run and don't look back. |

I like that semi-skeletonized dial, but that "BATMAN" text is just cringy. I'd swap a dial in one of my subs just for fun

Not that it would've made it much better, but they should have at least painted the 24-hour hand blue.
