BLRO v CHNR side-by-side photos
I just came across these photos and thought they were pretty good!
Both GMTs look great, but that TT, wow very nice. Can't lose either way, IMHO. |

Amazing photos - thanks for sharing OP! These are some of the best I've seen of the new BLRO and CHNR. And wow - that CHNR - the more I look at it the more I think I need one!

Man I really love that CHNR. I'm debating if I want another SS piece or if I want to save a few more years for that.

hmm.. I never been keen on jubilee, and I have had a 116713LN and flipped it for Bluesy, as nice as the CHNR appears I cannot see myself going back to it just for a flash of brown on the bezel.. perhaps it would have benefited from a brown dial too.
I cannot argue that the Pepsi bezel looks tremendous, but we have seen it before on the white gold watch. I still think the BLNR is "the" GMT to have.. I'll be keeping my 116613LB for now. |

Nice pics from everyone, thanks! I love the SS BLRO, but I tell you that TT CHNR is really growing on me. Maybe the wait for a CHNR might be shorter perhaps. Great pics though, which makes me want both...ha! Cheers!

Love them both but was too late on the BLRO so CHNR will be the one; a little nervous about it but also was about the Sky D. Time will tell, so to speak!!!
Thanks for the great photos!!! |

CHNR is stunning, i get the groupies will be all over the pepsi SS, but for me the would be root beer is a miles better looking piece. I am sad that the pepsi SS came out, the BLRO should have been retained as that exclusive Bezel colour, they could have made it a SS coke or some different colour to protect the BLRO exclusivity. Maybe Rolex should offer a FOC retrofit of the blue dial for any BLRO owners to keep their exclusivity. For me I lust after an original YG Root beer, i miss my TT Root Beer, only watch I regret selling.

I really don't like TT watches, but I really like the CHNR.

I’m with you, this is the only TT I’ve ever thought was even passable. It’s a stunner! Rolex designers hit it outta the park! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
