I am very interested to see if anyone has had luck tracking down the Pro Hunter version of the Explorer/Explorer II or the Paul Newman Daytona that have been reped?

I figure the "carbon matt" coating may be near impossible to recreate, but have always thought this had to be the watch Darth Vader and all the other dark side folks were after...

Well the DLC coating is nothing special, just buy the new 42mm superlume version and get it DLC'd. Will cost a few hundred bucks at least to get it like that watch though. All factory DLC I've seen on rollies is pretty crap.

Thank you for the answer, this world is new to me and often a mysterious place. A few hundred bucks is not a problem. I would happy to do that. Where does one secure a place to handle that process.

Price Angels has the Pro-Hunter Daytona (73 USD), Pro-Hunter Submariner , Pro-Hunter GMT-Master II and Pro-Hunter Sea-Dweller Jacques Piccard Edition.(136 USD ).
All are far from the best reps , but they are ok for what you pay .
All are mechanical ( i suppose the Daytona is a day/date mov in disguise :) )

Wow, that last thread was exactly what I was looking for. Thank you for the direction Bonesey. Will update if and when I can get something like this done.
