And then there were 2 GMTs
Decided to pull the trigger on this to add to the collection. This thing is sexy as hell, and it's true, the online pics do it NO justice. I used to have a 116613LB, but it was just too dang loud for my tastes, so I sold it. This one is just perfect for me.
When the 126711CHNR first came out, I said I'd never own a watch with brown on it. I'm now eating my words. I have to hand it to Rolex, this piece is so perfectly executed with the rose gold, brown, and black. Shout out to DavidSW for a great transaction. Yes, I paid over MSRP, but after factoring taxes and an 18-24 month wait, or not having to bundle other stuff that I don't want, it made sense financially for me to just do it. |

The one on the right has been drinking too much Rootbeer, lol.
 The proportions on the newer 6 digit reference just makes the older reference look a bit smaller imho. |

I always wanted a two tone sub. But was not able to buy one.
My first was a gmt LN then i got the starbucks and a bb58. But then i got my chnr my goodness it was truly scratched my sportswatch itch. I see myself getting a dj 41 in the near future and maybe if i ever could in this lifetime an aquanaut! But the CHNR is such a magnificent timepiece. |

If you can afford it and you enjoy the watch, no need to explain going gray =)

Great pick-up. I adore this watch, Rolex really knocked out the park with this one. And don’t blame you going great, time is more precious than money.
