Too Rosy?

Lucky to own an Everose Sky Dweller sundust and just received the GMT steel and gold root beer. I've been receiving offers to trade Root Beer for the Pepsi GMT. I really like both models equally. Is that a trade that I should make as I already have a rose gold watch, or is it better to keep the root beer? Any owners of either GMT please chime in! Respect everyone's advice and opinions on the forum. Thank you in advance!

I think the CHNR is the better looking watch of the two, in fact my favorite of all the GMTs they make. The sell for close to the same price pre-owned. The CRNR has the higher MSRP. Put all those factors together, I'd stick with the root beer!

I love my root beer, my new favorite, would not give it up that soon at least. The black dial is different enough from your SD to have both. I mean the Pepsi is a great watch to, but the Pepsi is going to be around.

Too rosey

Don’t rush with your decision or you may rue the day!
I did have the BLRO which I flipped for my Rootbeer and really really glad that I did it!

Good points from all so far. Thoughts on Oyster Bracelet Root Beer vs. Jubilee Pepsi?

I think the TT oyster dresses the watch up a bit, but so does the jubilee on the Pepsi. So to me it is a wash. The oyster will scratch easier, so there is that. Some people commented that they wish the root beer would have a jubilee. I get the idea, but man that is double extra flashy/dressy. I think the TT on oyster is dressy enough, but still sporty.

I have both Rootbeer and Pepsi and love both. To me Rootbeer looks better but both of them have similar market value so it depends which one you like it more.

Both are nice but yours is worth more $$; if trade ask money back as the hyppe on Pepsi does not makes it a more valuable watch on my mind

Depends. If you like both equally, odds are that at some point, you'll get the other. So...might as well hang on to the CHNR and start digging around for a Pepsi to go with it.

I personally also like the fresh CHNR in comparison to the BLRO (especially on the Jubilee).

CHNR without a doubt.

I’d suggest adding and resist temptations to trade or sell.
