At Baselworld 2018 this is the star of the show.
It's hard to not watch this more than several times.
May I share this video of the CHNR here?

I normally can’t stand two-tone, but this caught my eye as well.

My words exactly. But for some reason this TT is very very well balanced to the eye....hmmmm food for thought

MSJMJ · 11 April 2018, 01:35 PM

I think I want it, but hard to say without seeing it in person. Normally I wouldn’t want TT, but maybe this time . . .

KrismanX · 11 April 2018, 01:36 PM

I definitely put my name down for this one.

zjd168 · 11 April 2018, 01:47 PM

before bluesy was the only TT I would buy, now the CHNR seems like a winner too.

I guess the wait list for this one should be a lot shorter than the SS pepsi

This. Love the bluesy but after seeing the CHNR I like it more as the rose gold makes it less blingy and the black/brown bezel with gold accents are really classy

i think this watch supplants the bluesy as the tt to own. just my personal thought.

Same here

amazing

VicLeChic · 11 April 2018, 03:05 PM

Not a fan of TTs, this is no exception. Maybe my opinion will change with time but right now I much prefer the instant visual gratification of the 126710 BLRO.

I see the 126711 CHNR more like a potential acquired taste that might or might not grow on me. An underdog of sorts.

Navarino · 11 April 2018, 03:09 PM

I have a feeling once people start seeing this watch in person there is going to be a big, loving fanbase for it. I think this will be especially true for people around here.

I'll admit I kind of shrugged at it during the big Basel reveal and got caught up in the SS Pepsi craze. After looking at it again and again, I'm intrigued. This thing is going to have staunch defenders promoting for it once its on some wrists.

Personally, the TT contrast for this watch just...works. It's just enough to really catch your eye while not being overwhelmed by a full RG model.

Number3 · 11 April 2018, 05:09 PM

Had they put this on a jubilee strap I think it would be a winner.

I agree 100%

HL65 · 11 April 2018, 08:11 PM

Love this one and could be first TT watch I’ve bought since 1990.

s7horton · 11 April 2018, 08:23 PM

I’m excited about this one. I don’t mind TT watches, and currently own a 16613. Is love to see it in person, and also feel we might see this one in AD’s much sooner than the SS Pepsi.

I'm not a fan of TT if it uses yellow gold (but that's more of a referendum on me not liking yellow gold). From what I've seen in pictures of the TT CHNR, I love it and have my name down for one. This would be my first TT watch too. I was considering the TT chocolate dial YM for some time, so I'm glad this came out...fits the bill better.

AK797 · 11 April 2018, 10:24 PM

I'm too used to this guy's voice now.

BzKneez · 11 April 2018, 10:26 PM

I'm interested but I really need to see it in person

Brew · 11 April 2018, 10:32 PM

Part of me can't wait to see this one in person. The part that pays the bills screams, "Uncle!"

jfmiii · 11 April 2018, 11:30 PM

it is quite a looker. dont know if i can pull off the TT though.

watchwatcher · 11 April 2018, 11:37 PM

Yeah...I could see that one joining the fold.

Chadridv · 11 April 2018, 11:41 PM

That is a beauty

WaxedElvis · 11 April 2018, 11:46 PM

This is the RG TT YM are beautiful IMO, less "flashy" than YG TT. I've never owned a TT but both of these caught my eye. Not sure I'll buy, but looking forward to seeing it in person.

Danny83 · 12 April 2018, 12:02 AM

I really like this

American Jedi · 12 April 2018, 12:18 AM

I just called my A.D. And let them know I wanted this instead of the Pepsi!

Not really...

Definite sleeper. Might end up being my first ever TT.

soran · 12 April 2018, 12:39 AM

I usually don't like TT. But steel/rose looks much better than steel/YG

HogwldFLTR · 12 April 2018, 02:14 AM

My heart be still; waiting to place an order!!!!

droptopman · 12 April 2018, 02:43 AM

I like TT watches. Kind of an 80's throwback I guess. Love this model. Wife is pushing me to get one. I think she wants to wear it.
