Rags · 4 May 2018, 11:32 PM

Beautiful, Brown has always been my favorite color.

I wonder what availability will be like? There are not many hard to find TT's..

samson66 · 5 May 2018, 12:40 AM

Love it! Not sure I would buy it, but I love it

HogwldFLTR · 5 May 2018, 12:52 AM

I just wrote to my AD regarding the watch. I should have heard from him regarding my order. Hopefully I'll hear soon.

Well I've heard back; they are actually waiting for permission to place orders for the Basel releases. I'll be heading out to the West Coast next week; I'll see what's out there.

Looks pretty good .. still cannot figure out why folks are calling this a Root Beer ... The original Root Beer was named after the Brown Dial ...

Rolex_Jack · 5 May 2018, 01:25 AM

I like it a lot! I'm in Tokyo, and will be checking on Monday if there is anything new in Ginza.

Brown dial and gold bezel -- delicious root beer with creamy foam on top.

And, yeah, I agree that the current model isn't really a root beer. Even ignoring the drink reference itself, it's pretty different from the original root beer watch. Some folks are calling it "Espresso," which makes a lot more sense to me.

piratepress · 5 May 2018, 01:53 AM

Good to see more being delivered!

Urosfan · 5 May 2018, 01:54 AM

I call this the Louis V GMT, the colors of luxury. Looks better every time I see it.

cinch · 5 May 2018, 05:13 AM

I liked this as soon as the pics from Basel came through, much better colouring than the ceramic Pepsi. I think when these hit ADs they're going to be a real hit.

I think they will do well too. At my AD's event last night, people who were interested in the Pepsi already remained interested, but people who weren't convinced from the get-go also didn't seem to be immediate converts. The CHNR had a very positive reaction from people - it seems to be the one piece that converted people when it could be seen and tried on in person. I was told if I was interested, I could have one pretty quickly. Not sure if I'll regret not going for it, but I'm still on the fence if I want to spend the money considering other pieces on my "want list".
