Smurf maybe a little under the radar compared to the rose gold. Both are beautiful you can’t go wrong with either one.

Love, love watches but if I had a choice of only one, slight edge to the RG piece.260B2302-F584-4C2F-9A66-B086C540D99B.jpeg

I like the simplicity and the under the radar smurf, but considering that GMT is more comfortable (especially since this is a PM piece, weight must affect much more), I might choose the rootbeer.

Submariner always wins regardless of the dial colour or material. Rolex blue will always be the best. Look what happened to the old root beer, probably only for the discerning,,,,

For me it's an easy choice. I prefer RG over WG and GMT over Sub, so Rootbeer.

Smurf is a timeless classic and a beast of a rolex - flying under the radar.

RG rootbeer is a beautiful piece of flash...

I'd say both serve slightly different purposes and cant go wrong with either..

If I had to vote, I'd go RG RB
