CHNR and Hulk

Based on some odd behavior I thought a user's watches were fake, but they do look convincing and I'm having doubts. Does this all look legitimate to you guys? I thought the outer boxes, particularly with the handwritten CHNR, were odd but I don't know how they come from Rolex these days. Higher res image here. Thanks!

I can't say.. they look good but fakes are getting so much better these days. The box can be acquired and cards can be faked too.. Buy the seller is my advice.

No red flags
Both serial numbers clean!
That does not make them authentic, but my feeling is good

They may be stolen pictures of real watches. By putting all of the pictures together as a collage, there is no way to do a picture search.
