New rootbeer
Tried this beauty on for the first time at my local ad tonight. Picked up the new issue of rolex magazine as well.

Wow, there is a long waiting list for the CHNR at a lot of places. It’s my grail watch. I call it “sexy chocolate” and it’s Rolex perfection IMO.

Beautiful pic. I've heard there are waiting lists, which is why I thought it was odd seeing one in case. They won't ship, but maybe it will find a good home soon.

It's an awesome watch. Mine gets a boat load of wrist time at the minute.

Gorgeous watch! I think it’s my favorite TT option that Rolex has.

My AD has a slightly used one for $16k. I saw it last week -- very nice! PM me if you want me to set it up.

Edit: whoa, I just looked it up. Does this retail for $14k?

Appears msrp is 14050 usd. I would have to pay taxes, but still quite a bit lower than grey.

Like most hot watches, msrp is meaningless. Going grey market for new is around $17k-$17.5.

Prices can go to crazy depending where you look.

Beautiful watch, but there’s no reason to pay over MSRP for this reference.
