Have we done this yet? Tough call.

daOnlyBG · 6 November 2019, 11:28 AM

I think it's a pretty easy call, actually.

If you own the BLRO, it's the BLRO.

If you own the CHNR, it's the CHNR.

If you own neither, it's the BLRO.

I see what you did there

brucethemanlee · 6 November 2019, 11:43 AM

BLRO without question

ArL · 6 November 2019, 11:47 AM

Well I own the CHNR so that’s my pick. Love the watch.

Pepsi Color > Poop Color

Rootbeer!

kieselguhr · 6 November 2019, 12:41 PM

I really like the CHNR

t65tampa · 6 November 2019, 12:46 PM

BLRO>BLNR>>>>CHNR in my opinion. The CHNR is probably the best looking bi-color watch Rolex makes, but I’m just not a fan of bi-color watches.

This

I own BLRO and have owned LN and BLNR, BLRO is way better. Think I didn’t like the black part on the others including CHNR.

Controversial...! lol

I would agree apart from the last bit - if you own neither its either/or

Most would say the CHNR is the first TT watch to convert a lot of 'non TT' fans to actually concider buying one for the first time.

Yes, either/or- but empirically speaking, people's preferences are massively lopsided toward one end.

abelxo · 6 November 2019, 05:08 PM

Its is a tough one.... I think I prefer the BLRO.... even though I prefer the MKII and MKII bezel...

Perhaps if the CHNR would come with the Jubilee I’d change my mind

So true - BLRO for you as I’m not a huge fan of the root beer colours

Couldn't agree more.

1William · 6 November 2019, 10:10 PM

For me it is the BLRO.

Harry-57 · 6 November 2019, 10:14 PM

The BLRO is so pretty, although to my eyes the Jubilee bracelet looks fussy. The CHNR really works with the RG. The whole aesthetic just pops in a way I didn't expect until I saw one up close in natural light.

When the BLRO launched I would have bought one on sight. One and a half years later it doesn't appeal so strongly to me. I think all the hype and the gouging in the grey market have put me off. I am now on a list for a TT CHNR. It won't be along for a couple of years and in that time I may go off it and change my mind. But so far, my regard for the BLRO seems to be tracking in inverse proportion to my regard for the CHNR. Maybe it's because I'm getting older.

I prefer root beer over pepsi.

watchwatcher · 6 November 2019, 11:13 PM

I own both and enjoy each immensely whenever its turn comes up in the rotation.

As to which one I like better, it varies on any given day. As to which one I'd keep if forced to give one up, it would depend on a lot of other factors. So...there you go.
