CHNR. By far the most compelling modern contemporary TT being produced by Rolex currently.

Datejust 41 with a champagne dial and jubilee bracelet

Daytona with a champagne dial

Bluesy


Which one would you choose if you were me?
So I have the 114060 and datejust 41 blue dial, love it! I know you said you wanted some gold, but wasn’t sure what 41 you had. I can tell you the blue with white gold fluted bezel and jubilee bracelet really changes things up. But if from your list 100% the 41 champagne dial.

The 16613 / 116613 blue models by far.

The most beautiful Rolex made - IMHO (your opinion may vary)

For me, two TTs stand above the rest - bluesy and rootbeer, so from your list, bluesy.

I thought I wanted a root beer until I did this. Once I saw these two side-by-side, there was no question - the YM was the watch for me. The chocolate dial with a small bit of red and the rose gold bezel just make the watch pop.

Ah, the Serti dial - a classy and unique reference.
Although I've generally eschewed champagne dials and am not a diamond kinda guy but Rolex really got it right with the Serti Submariner.

***For the record: the latest super-polished version of the champagne dial is really striking.***?

As to the OP's query: I'm biased to Datejusts so that would be my recommendation. The DJ41 with it's upgraded power reserve, new 3235 mvt. and larger, but elegant sized case make for a great watch. Of course, the Bluesy, etc. on your wish list are also superlative watches as well. Tough call but a fun problem all the same.
Good luck and keep us posted.

I don't think there is a 'best'. All the TT rolex watches have their own charm. I also have a 114060 and wanted a TT companion for it. I was eyeing the CHNR until I tried the TT everrose yacht master with black dial. I was sold on a few levels. Firstly, it has the slimmer case and wears like a classic Rolex. This is a nice difference from the bigger case of the sub. Secondly, its a nice mix between a sports watch and dress watch. Thirdly, I grew up on the coast so the yachting connotations interests me. Fourthly, but not leastly, its a stunning design...

I had a choice between these 2 and a white dial TT Daytona a few weeks ago.

I took the CHNR. The watch was just incredible in person.

So I am a little biased.
