Love the brown/black bezel.

Just waiting for it to become available with a jubilee bracelet.

I live in hope.

That root beer is a gorgeous watch.

Now they said the bezel is black and brown. Am I assuming they are actually talking about the rose gold on the numbers when they mention brown? The actual ceramic part is still black like the dial, correct?

Awesome piece - think Rolex really nailed it with that one!

Also agree, the bluesy makes a great summer watch.

Enjoy both, but I suspect the CHNR wont be on sabbatical next summer...lol!

Wow! Congrats on your great looking GMTc Root Beer! Love this reference. I've noticed quite a few incomings of these, and with good reason. Enjoy and wear it in good health. Cheers!
