Good morning. I have the opportunity to try on and buy the CHNR today. I'm excited to see it in person and am pretty sure I will end up walking away with it. I have a question or two for you new owners of this beautiful watch.

1. Does the watch's appeal and unique look get old or is it a look that you think is enduring?
2. Similar to above, has your taste changed on it's look following your purchase (either good or bad)?

I'll let you all know how this goes today. Thanks for any responses!

I love it, do t think you can get tired of it, beautiful color combo, and the RG just sets it off

Great pic, I like this when the colours are darker and crisper, not a sunshine watch for me.

This is the star of the show. Saw the new pink/purple Pepsi....it’s a pass.
The Rose GMT is incredible.

Haha, contrarian

kilyung · 30 June 2018, 12:06 AM

It’s a handsome watch but not sure how RG will age in the GMT line.

Vivalas · 30 June 2018, 12:11 AM

Didn’t think I’d like it, but it looks great.

Starwalker · 30 June 2018, 12:23 AM

it's definitely a very good looking watch!

joli160 · 30 June 2018, 12:40 AM

Beautiful watch

I purchased one at my local AD, a little over a week ago. When I first saw the pics of this watch, it was obvious that this is the most beautiful two-tone watch Rolex has ever made. My feelings were confirmed when I picked up the watch, but then, I took a look as to how it would wear on and for me (never actually put it on, just put it up against my wrist) and realized, a two tone watch just doesn't work for me. I sold it here, on TRF, the next day.

Again, my feeling about the watch, from an aesthetic point of view, hasn't changed.......its gorgeous. Its just not for me!!

piratepress · 30 June 2018, 02:24 AM

I would like to see one in person before I make my final decision.

hodie9 · 30 June 2018, 02:24 AM

I've had mine for almost a month and find I keep reaching for it over the rest of my collection. Still stunning to me and absolutely love wearing it.

Eric-London · 30 June 2018, 02:36 AM

Best TT out there IMO

scottwmitch · 30 June 2018, 02:42 AM

As a quick update to this thread I started last week, I did buy the watch and am loving it.

why didnt you try it on at the AD before you paid?

05carbondrz · 30 June 2018, 03:23 AM

Do you really expect someone who paid 12K for a Watch to tell you it sucks?

woof · 30 June 2018, 03:30 AM

Congrats!! on your new baby. I bought mine last week and I love it.

rockdrock · 30 June 2018, 11:33 AM

This is one of the silent hits of Baselworld 2018. I absolutely love this piece. Everything about it. I got the call from my AD that the Pepsi is ready but I was a hair away from getting this one. My only concern is that it will not age (fashionably) well with me. It might make me feel like I am wearing my 8th grade mullet haircut in 2025. But then again, the mullet may come back in style. In short, this piece is beautiful and congrats to all those that own it.
