Congratulations!

Two great GMT’s and I would keep both of the, in a rotation.

The bigger question for me would be “what next”.

It doesn’t have to be a Rolex, but add something different like an Omega Seamaster, Grand Seiko or any other watch out there to diversify your collection.

If you are happy with that three watch rotation, stop there and enjoy them, but I don’t think those two GMT’s are too similar.

Enjoy them and wear them in good health.

Thanks for all the input and comments and sounds like having both will be good.

Just need to locate some artwork for the new one...

Congratulations, nothing wrong with owning 2 models of the same watch.
I have a SS SD43 which is more or less my daily then the TT SD43 for weekends.

This thread needed a pic for side by side comparison. I think both add so much variety that they can co-exist in a collection.

That said, my BLNR is on Jubilee so have both that and Oyster for variety… but I think you’ll be fine.

We all know your collection won’t stop at just these two (god knows mine didn’t) - the journey is the biggest part of the fun.

Enjoy and congratulations

Missed this post but a great picture! Definitely feel like the jubilee makes your 2 look different but my first impressions are that the CHNR does look and feel like a different watch.
