Editor’s note: Last week, D.C wrote this story about the watch collection of Anthony Bourdain, which highlighted the great man’s penchant for a blacked-out luxury replica Rolex Milgauss. But it also reminded us that he’s not alone. As Zach wrote in this story, this modified 1:1 fake Rolex UK is a real celebrity favourite.
Like it or loathe it, ‘modding’ watches is here to stay. And it’s increasingly accessible to you at any price point. At the lower end, you have the thriving, escalating world of @seikomods. At the highest end, you can modify your Piaget Ultimate Concept any which way you like. And in celebrity-land, you have the longtime practice of ‘blacking out’ your perfect replica Rolex – and, in the process, bringing Hollywood flair to standard Rolex references, in particular, it seems, the Milgauss.
We have written about several businesses that offer this service – Artisans de Genève, Blaken, Titan, and Project X Designs, among others, are all known modifiers of AAA Rolex replica watches – born from a desire to make a mass-produced watch a little more custom and unique (or at the very least uncommon). Here are five celebrities who have bet their Big Crown Rolex Milgauss replica online on black. Thanks to Nick Gould – @niccoloy – for his help in spotting some of these.
Jennifer Aniston
Kicking things off, sitcom legend and Friends star Jennifer Aniston has been repeatedly spotted wearing her blacked-out 1:1 fake Rolex Milgauss. The stainless steel case has been treated with either a DLC or PVD gloss black coating over its original satin and mirror polish finishes. She has tamed the look further, opting for a clear sapphire crystal in favour of the factory green crystal it is usually paired with. Considering the predominantly black look, with the small pop of orange from the seconds hand and markers, I can’t help but wonder how the super clone watch would pair with our very own Time+Tide club limited edition Erika’s Original NATO.
Anthony Bourdain
The late great chef Anthony Bourdain was known for travelling the world, exploring cuisine, and sharing his experiences with his many fans and viewers of his television series. As a chef, especially one who travelled so much, it makes sense that he wanted to blend Swiss movement replica Rolex reliability with the stealth aesthetic an all black Rolex can provide.
The Rolex Milgauss fake for sale uk is a time-only watch known for its great degree of resistance to magnetism, which considering all of the airport security machines he needed to pass through and electronic film gear perpetually surrounding him made a stealth black version of the reference a great match for his wrist. Where his modded high quality replica Rolex differs from Jennifer Aniston’s above is that his Rolex has maintained the green crystal the standard Rolex Milgauss copy paypal is known for.
