No. Garish maybe, but not rootbeerish xD

JParm · 21 March 2018, 11:49 PM

I like it a lot, actually

rossi46 · 21 March 2018, 11:52 PM

Why did they attempt this with RG and not YG like the original?

These are pretty bad, IMO. Only means continued price increases for 5-series GMTs.

benlee · 21 March 2018, 11:58 PM

That's actually my favourite among the new release. I plan to get one.

Nice, I do prefer RG to YG so nice to see these out. Not sure of the brown insert tho, need to see it.

X2

Not sure when i’d get it though

KBM · 22 March 2018, 12:20 AM

I think the RG will look great. The brown insert, on the other hand, not so much.

Brad Clissold · 22 March 2018, 12:31 AM

I love, love, love it.

Oceanlover914 · 22 March 2018, 12:57 AM

I like it. I think that this is one of those combinations that pictures don't do justice. Brown and rose gold will look good together.

yannis · 22 March 2018, 01:03 AM

It is a beautiful watch.

kilyung · 22 March 2018, 01:07 AM

I’m reserving judgement until I see one irl.

gone-rolex-mad · 22 March 2018, 01:07 AM

Love it! For me it’s thebest of the lot.

x2 definitely one youll need to see in the flesh

It'll probably look better IRL but who knows, look at that Daytona.

rootbeer7 · 22 March 2018, 07:07 AM

I’m not sure it’s not a mess??

capote · 22 March 2018, 07:09 AM

Black and brown does not go together IMO

rexG · 22 March 2018, 08:31 AM

Here it is in real life. I think it looks better than the rendering....unlike the new Pepsi.

Gharddog03 · 22 March 2018, 08:45 AM

I like it

Chumpey · 22 March 2018, 08:50 AM

I’m calling it the espresso

VicLeChic · 22 March 2018, 09:09 AM

You know what, the more I look at it, the more I like it, it really grows on me. But my heart is set on the steel Pepsi.

japenney · 22 March 2018, 09:11 AM

I like it a hell of a lot more than the dumb idea of putting a blue dial on the WG Blro. I can tell you that much at least.

lecorsaire · 22 March 2018, 09:12 AM

These guys are a bit annoying but at least the video shows a much more accurate representation of every watch released than the photos posted here. The Root Beer bezel is indeed brown and not red like it looks in those shots.

VERY hard to watch this, must keep skipping forward to avoid the nonsense and get to each watch. And STILL skip over the nonsense while discussing each watch.

Terence B · 22 March 2018, 09:21 AM

The real life looks classy IMO

Vetracer · 22 March 2018, 09:22 AM

Do you think the rose gold Root Beer will sell at a premium once released?

I quite like it but don’t want to pay retail only to see it discounted by 20%.

I don't like nicknames to begin with but I like espresso better than root beer, which has already been used.

artschool · 22 March 2018, 10:36 AM

is it brown or tan?

I don't think it will be a fast seller. You should be able to get a discount on it especially if you wait a while. You'll get an even better price from the GM. These will be available on display like most gold models. Not everyone has over $30k to buy a new gold watch all the time. I don't think the TT will sell fast either. Maybe when it's first available since some people always like to show off the latest stuff.
