Why call it Rootbeer when Rolex officially calls it Chocolate?

They make chocolates in Switzerland and have no knowledge of USA root beer.

New member here. I want this watch so bad. Any advice for a newbie to either wait for my AD to get it or just pony up the money and get it at DavidSW?

First thing I had to do was go out of state as I live in a high income, population heavy area and didn't feel like competing with a bunch of other folks. Went to various ADs in the area I was traveling to on business in September. I flat out told them I was a first-time buyer and that I was serious. They were willing to work with me if I was willing to pay 50% down to be 3rd in line, and that it would be no more than 4-6 months after verifying with their procurement people. I said I had the cash ready to go, paid the deposit and I had the watch the week before Christmas. |

I picked mine up in portland at ben bridge with no purchases prior. I dont think these will be that rare. Being in the bay area doesnt help.

Picked mine up last week. Lovely warmth to it, and it gives me a headache trying to decide between this and the Batman for wear. Maybe Batman during the day, Rootbeer at night?

Saw this photo yesterday of a photographer I admire. I must admit I’ve become more interested in TT as of lately.

Just noticed that the 126711 CHNR has officially fallen below the price of a 126710 BLRO on DavidSW's site.

Yeah I am waiting to see what the prices will be this year after Basel 2019. The Two Tone CHNR will be my next piece for a very long time, so I want to see if the price drops at all for a pre owned one.

It's so hard to get a representative photo of this watch. Looks great in person.

I got mine 5 months ago. At first I didn’t think it would get much wrist time, but I find it hard to take it off. I’ve never been a TT fan, but this piece is just beautiful.

Some great pics here. This one is growing on me, although I do prefer the pics where the brown is showing a darker shade.
