Favorite TT Rolex?
I haven’t been a fan of TT until I laid my eyes on the CHNR. Not only is it my favorite TT (by a mile), it might be my favorite Rolex, period. It’s a stunning beauty. My only concern is that I don’t like others to notice my watches.

I wouldn't worry about what others would think.
More than likely most people won't even notice or care.

CHNR is my favorite by far. Problem is, after getting the TT I'd rather have the full RG version.

Actually, I like Tt more than PM root beer. The colors combination did not give it a pop

That's why I prefer the full RG. It's a bit more subtle.

Understand, but The contrast between the SS and the RG is amazing...Is flipping the TT to upgrade to the full RG reference an option? If so, I highly recommend it. The 715 is a complete show stopper. I hope it’s in the cards for you pal

I'm a dummy for sure!

If you don't want others to notice your watches then you'll probably have to skip Rolex altogether or get past it. The latter is my suggestion.

I will say this... the copper color in the CHNR TT isn't nearly as noticeable as yellow gold. It tends to disappear in sunlight and turn black.

Everyone will notice a TT Rolex no matter which model you choose. But, life is short and it's your life and not theirs. Enjoy every minute of it.

Perfect assessment of the rose gold color. I also agree with your view on life. It is to short. You never know what tomorrow holds. Live for today.

My as well
All colors are blended so well on this watch. The only one thing I change - make brown sunburst dial instead of black.

Agreed! A rich brown sunburst dial would be a knockout! I got excited when I saw the bezel of this watch, but the black dial seems out of place.

TT Skydweller, black dial. I like the way it pops.

Blusey, with TT black Sky Dweller and CHNR equal second. I'd be delighted to own any of them and would love to own all of them.

The CHNR is my new crush.

Hard to beat the bluesy, though.

CHNR. I prefer the warmth of the Rolex rosegold over the yellow gold.
