The Rootbeer is a real phuck off piece, get it. Only a WIS will know what the surf is. If you are gonna go gold, GO GOLD. Even the YG sub with the green dial would rock.

Full fat Rootbeer is a great looking blingtastic watch if you can pull it off or feel comfortable wearing such in-yer-face-gold-ostentation. No one will mistake what you want to show off, I mean wear.

The Smurf is otherwise more wearable, subtle, and equally special Rolex. Long term discretion. Equally happy with a T-shirt and jeans as it is with a suit.

My choice... (I sold the CHNR for this)

Smurf over the RG GMT. I have the TT RG GMT and I think it is the perfect balance but, to me, the RG is too pink to have the entire watch RG. That's just me. I love my smurf and so I lean to the Sub, which is also my favorite Rolex Reference line.

Biased answer because I already like the watch. Root beer GMT. I prefer the look of the TT one myself. WG sub for full PM

So platinum should look platinum and not like SS??? Heavy metals - precious metals - are all alloys, it just depends on which metals they are alloyed to. So WG is gold.
