How long did you have to wait for that piece?

It took about 2 months, but I have some history and I think they just knew it was going to a good home.

I agree, I think it suits dark light more than direct sunlight to get it’s true colours. Whereas other models pop in direct sunlight.

I’m planning on a short rotation of my Sub during the day and at work, and CHNR in evenings, when less things to knock it into lol. I’m over conscious at the moment. Maybe that will settle down.

Thanks and congrats to you. I’m on the list but only been on about a month but the dealer seemed to think it would be quite quick but not holding my breath.... I have previously purchased with the dealer.

Congrats on the Rootbeer. I stare at mind all the time and love how it changes based on lighting.

It’s a great all around piece, but it truly shines in night, low light settings. Very elegant piece, congratulations.

Welcome to the club! I also have the BLNR on Jubilee and even though they are very different timepieces, I like the CHNR better. Wear in good health, and try to keep your eye on the road!
