Custom DLC and PVD treatments on Rolex references occupy a polarising corner of the watch world — purists recoil, while streetwear-influenced collectors chase them hard. The watch on Manchester boxer Anthony Crolla's wrist is a Rolex GMT-Master II, base reference 116710BLNR ('Batman'), stripped of its factory finish and subjected to a full black PVD/DLC treatment by UK customiser Fantome Noir. The result is a stealthy, all-black interpretation of the iconic blue-black ceramic bezel model, spotted here as Crolla signs autographs at a boxing event.

The Rolex Submariner 116610LV earned its 'Hulk' nickname for a reason: it was the first Submariner to pair an all-green dial with a green Cerachrom bezel, making it one of the most visually striking sport watches Rolex ever produced. Discontinued in 2020 and replaced by the 126610LV 'Starbucks,' the 116610LV has since become a grey-market favourite. Manchester-born WBA lightweight champion Anthony Crolla was spotted on wrist ahead of his highly anticipated rematch against Jorge Linares.

The Rolex Daytona 116515LN is one of the most coveted executions in the entire Daytona lineage — its Everose gold case paired with a rich chocolate dial creates a warmth that no steel or white gold variant can replicate. Powered by the in-house Calibre 4130, it delivers a 72-hour power reserve and column-wheel chronograph precision. Former WBA lightweight world champion Anthony Crolla, known for his grit inside Manchester's rings, wears his success quietly but unmistakably on the wrist.
