Warning: Rootbeer Pron Pics :D (126711CHNR)

First would like to say a most humble thanks to Nicholas Squitieri of Mayors at Tampa's International Plaza for his incredible awesomeness! This watch is one of the most challenging timepieces to photoshoot imho! Having never seen one in person, truly relied on you guys here before reserving one. Sure i saw pics, yet as many have said you reeeeeeally need to see this timepiece in person.

Hopefully my pics below show a bit of a different 'perspective' as light color and intensity truly does 'play' with the color and shading... a lot!

This one truly surprised me how great it looks in person. Dunno why, but pics never seemed to truly capture what my eyes are seeing right now. Am a rose gold guy for decades (custom rg Wellendorff wedding ring, bracelet, necklaces, etc are all rose gold).

As Tom Petty sang, even the losers get lucky sometimes. Wait time was surprisingly fast. While i'm still waiting on the Pepsi as called seconds after it was announced, requested CHNR fairly recently and Nick @ Mayors truly came through for me. Even Nick was a bit surprised how fast she came in.

Me? i was taken aback at the speed of delivery as felt it'd be another three to ??? months. Whoever @ Mayors upper mgt loves me, i love you too

Again, imho you reeeeeally need to see the CHNR in person. If you love rose gold / Everose, and maybe even a bit of that steampunk look about it, the CHRN is a must-have.

A most humble thanks everyone! Am debating going creative with a steampunk-style worn/aged-looking leather wrist band.

It's a beautiful piece, and without doubt the best TT RG Rolex makes. The pictures make it look even better. Congrats and enjoy!

Guys, i truly feel bad even my best pics leave A LOT to be desired. The gloss, the dark black dial with Everose highlights... This typical cell phone pic is a shadow of how lovely she truly is. Notice the totally 'washed out' Everose bits on the dial and all that.

Seeing one in person is a must!

I think the second photo captures what I really love about this watch...when the lights dim and the gold of the hands against the dial shine through.

If you wear polarized lenses when driving and the sun is going down, that's when you really see the gold start to glow.

The watch is an amazing chameleon.

I've seen one up close in daylight. I didn't realise how visually clever it was until I met it.

Congratulations. It's a special one.

IMO, the CHNR is the most perfectly designed modern Rolex. They got everything right from the color of the ceramic as it matches the Everose gold perfectly. The details go beyond other Rolex color combos. It is easily a $20k watch considering what others have been hyped to.

I have get more comments from every age group on the CHNR than any other watch. It’s a rock star.
