Hard work pays off.

My main ADs did not come through, so I reached to other ADs I’ve visited while traveling. Low and behold, one came through! And they included a nice Rolex cap as well!

GMT II CHNR (Rootbeer)





Note: I initially wanted the BLNR, but after trying on the CHNR through a friend, I loved it. Not generally a two tone fan, but this one is just awesome!

FYI: Tourneau in NYC has one as of Fri 6/12 AM. They called me with availability a day after I received this one. For anyone after CHNR via an AD at retail, give them a call!

Congrats OP. Best two tone combo that Rolex offers IMO. These are easy to source and I have seen many of them at AD's. Certainly no reason for anyone to pay a premium for it.
