116515LN rose gold black dial oysterflex or 126715CHNR?

116515LN rose gold black dial oysterflex or 126715CHNR? What would you choose? Which one would be a forever watch? Is the brown bezel of the CHNR tiring to look at after some time? Thoughts pls. Disregard the price difference. Thanks

Chnr

I would recommend CHNR. I don’t like the way oysterflex sits on the wrist. If you haven’t tried it, make sure you do before you would purchase... very weird IMHO.

I have a 126711 CHNR and i love love the bezel. Very eye catching. You will get far more compliments since it’s the supercase with the cyclops. I just sold my Daytona 116500. It was very low key and no one knew it was a Rolex, which I did not like... I feel the oysterflex makes the Daytona look even less “Rolex like”.

I love the look, but same here. It does not sit on the wrist well. Plus, I like the bracelets better.

My wife has the 116655, but I prefer it on her wrist...

I've had a 126715CHNR for a few months now and, to my eye, it remains a stunning timepiece. I've received more than a few compliments on it. The everose provides a nice middle ground between the more common steel and the flash of yellow gold. I do not, however, find that it's a daily driver. Its character and color lends itself best to evenings out, dinner parties and more formal occasions. It looks amazing with darker clothing (e.g. black or dark blue sweaters, darker sports coats).

126715CHNR

The everose GMT is stunning. I have the TT CHNR and it draws more compliments than all my other watches put together. Solid wrist presence, beautiful pink gold, the bezel exudes a very classy warmth. Had the opportunity to try at grey, loved it.

A good friend has the 116515 which I tried on but not a fan of the OF.

126715CHNR

I just bought mine a few months ago and I love it, it has unseated my Day Date 40mm Everose as my favorite.

The Chocolate and Black Bezel is stunning.

Try it on and make sure you bought enough money to buy it as you won't want to take it off of your wrist.
