Love mine.....almost think it would look better with the bezel all brown just because the brown matches so well with the rose gold.

The BLNR hate is so strong it’s causing a disturbance in the Force!

Are you sure about that?

These MSRP at $14,050. Grays are selling these for $15.5 - $16k.

You'll lose money on the flip or at best break even.

You must have been on the AD's list for them to call.

Why are you now asking the forums advice whether to purchase or not?

You clearly want it or you wouldnt have been on the list in the frst place.

This thread is pointless.

Is it that you really want it but cant justyfy it because you only just picked up the blnr?

If thats the case, no one here's opinion matters, only you can decide whether its the right time for you or not.

Either buy it & create an incoming thread or dont buy it & move on.... no need to make a thread about your own indecision and a non event.

The brown part of the bezel is stunning but I also think the black half just gives a nice contrast and makes it more interesting to look at.

Might be a bit bland if it were all brown.

I dont think the full RG 'pops' as much as the TT tbh because theres too much of the same colour going on... with the TT the brown half of the bezel really stands out against the steel body.

Nod. On the full RG a full black bezel actually would look better. I would know because I have it.

And you are correct that TT actually "pops" more.
For me that was the reason not to buy the TT because I don't want my watch to "pop."

Very nice score! A big congrats to you! The TT CHNR is a great ref and is a real looker. I've liked this one ever since it was released. Enjoy that beauty!

Great pics!

I really feel the CHNR is the best looking GMT out there...better than Batman, better than the Pepsi. The rose gold just sets this off. SUCH a difference versus the YG TT. I never would have thought this before I bought mine (and I've handled them both). I was THIS close to buying the 116713 before I saw the 126711 in person. I felt there was no way I could justify paying $5k more for a different shade of gold (even with the new movement). I was very wrong, though. The 116713 is nothing compared to this watch.

Only watch I would rather have is the full PM rose gold or yellow gold GMT.....and that's just due to the PM.
