Love it! Sometimes I wish the CHNR had a brown/chocolate dial as well.

Really nice looking TT, especially in the sunlight! I also love the 5 digit era in general.

A decade earlier, different reference (GMT Master 1675) on jubilee.
Modern RG 126711CHNR needs the "brown" dial. Nipples welcomed as well.

Nice pics OP ! What a watch. Love it.
