The BLNR for me....but I think this decision is highly personal. The 2 tone stuff just doesn't sit right with me personally.

This is the dilemma I'm also facing as I look to add a GMT to my collection. I had been leaning towards the BLNR but after seeing the TT in person I'm not so sure. The brown and rose gold combination is really striking and does a lot to bring out the smaller details in the watch but for some reason when put beside a BLNR looks a bit "flashy" to me. I think that's due to the gold center links but I've seen it without on the all stainless oyster and to me the watch loses a bit of that special feeling. Tough one.

The BLNR is my favourite. Purely because of the bezel colour.

Both. But I love my BLNR. First time I saw one I knew I had to own one.

I love my new Blnr, I'm not enough of a TT fan anymore to own one but the Chnr is a beauty. I really dig the bezel and dial together. Great looking piece but just not for me.

I was offered 2x the CHNR at my local AD, although very nice I was just not comfortable with any shade of RG/YG on my watches. Will go for the BLNR.

Both are the options I gave to my AD to call me if they have any. However, if need to pick one, I would end with root beer.

Haven’t had time to sit down and savor my sticker removal. Been busy.

BLNR is probably more everyday and will be easier to wear in a lot of scenarios. The CHNR looks great on you though and I feel has a lot more wrist presence!

A very striking watch on your wrist that might make it hard to wear if you're trying to "keep it under the radar" so to speak.
