CHNR wasn’t on my list but seeing is believing!

I’m a big GMT fan, it’s an occupational hazard. Like everyone else, I couldn’t wait to get my grubby little paws on the BLRO. I was driving by my local AD and decided to stop in. “As I do often” I’m probably affectionately known as their favorite watch creeper. I say hello, BLRO? I get a big smile. “ I’m thinking it’s here” My wonderful sales person goes to the back and returns with? Drum roll please. Yes the CHNR. A few seconds of “Nooooooo” in slow-mo goes thru my mind. But being the GMT fan I had to see it. It was instantaneous love at first sight, crap. Of course it’s personal preference. I could only tell you this: Pictures do not do this watch justice. You need to see it live front row. All of the colors blend together almost seamlessly and perfectly. Like the Hulk, It transforms between indoor and outdoor light, The rose gold is subtle, And in different light almost blends right into the stainless. The browns and black in the dial and bezel are like an artist palette. This is a Tool watch with class. You can dress it up for a formal evening or dinner with friends and I think it’s just as at home with a pair of jeans. As far as a daily, I think that’s up to you. I hope you enjoyed my two cents worth.

Great watch! The CHNR is so hot right now. Can anyone remember the last time a TT watch was this hot? I think the era of pervasive TT hate is coming to an end, partly thanks to this watch

Yes, I love how my CHNR blended in with the steel, I heard someone said rolesor can't be use in dress, but I think it's untrue for the CHNR, the rose gold is kind of muted in and nicely in dress
