I prefer and would take the TT rootbeer before the Pepsi so that got my vote….. I will be in the minority, but it’s just nicer imo with the rose gold and warmer tones. It really depends on your color preferences.

Imo the rootbeer TT and bluesy TT are the 2 best TT watches that Rolex makes right now.

My AD surprised me this weekend with a GMT Pepsi. I'd not held one before as they don't have display models, but on the wrist I can see why it has such a following.

After a couple days with the GMT, I prefer the weight of the TT watches and I think that would sway me over to the Rooter should I have to choose between the two. I typically wear my DeepSea daily since it was my first Rolex and throughout the day I can feel the weight of it on the wrist reminding me it's there.

I'm also into gold and precious metals, so that aspect of the Rootbeer is appealing too.

I’d choose the SS in this scenario. I do like the TT versions of most all Rolex models….but in YG/SS first, over RG/SS.
If I was buying a gmt and had the choice between YG/SS and SS…then my choice would come down to what’s in my collection at that time. If a one and only, I’d go SS.

Almost exactly my own thinking.

The only bit I don't agree with is the BLRO looking like a Timex. My reasons for not liking the BLRO so much as the others is basically down to how the colours are rendered.
