I'm on the waiting list for Batgirl, but my AD offered me consider rootbeer also , what would you prefer, Batgirl or RootBeer?

Jack T · 8 September 2021, 01:25 PM

The offer was made to you, which do you prefer?

GradyPhilpott · 8 September 2021, 01:37 PM

I'll take a sugar-free A&W two-liter, please.

When i went to AD I made an order for Batgitl, but AD offered me also root beer, and now I'm thinking, i saw batgirl in real and tried it on my hand but root beer no.
Most likely i would prefer batgirl, cuz i have DJ RG.

Both great. Tough call. Love my CHNR. If you really want the BLNR maybe you should wait. Something to consider tho if you take the CHNR would that put you at the bottom of the list now for the BLNR. Or will taking the CHNR up your chances. Id ask your AD those questions.

CHNR! One of, if not, the best two tone Rolex today

root beer if you have another stainless Rolex you wear. It’s really amazing in person, you should absolutely check it out if you haven’t tried it on.

You’re on the list for BLNR, so you want a BLNR. I should wait for the BLNR. But…

If you haven’t seen the CHNR I would at least go and have a look. Maybe it’ll sing to you. Won’t hurt to check it out

This. Also, it’s worth seeing if you can figure out whether the AD is really seeing if they can expand your interest to models you haven’t considered or using the TT CHNR as a way to either (1) upsell you or (2) vaguely hint that you aren’t really in the running for a BLNR given your relationship with AD. I have heard of ADs politely admitting to using tactic (2) with the TT Submariner and TT Daytona, so I wouldn’t be surprised if the same happens with TT GMT.

Ceb · 8 September 2021, 07:09 PM

I still cant get my head around a half brown bezel, maybe that will change, but as of today I'd stick with the BLNR.

mailman · 8 September 2021, 07:15 PM

Easy for me. CHNR all day long.

HL65 · 8 September 2021, 07:17 PM

CHNR for the win! I wear the full RG one much of the time and it has quickly become my favorite piece in collection. I have the TT as well and it is a nice change up. The BLNR is a fine watch but for me on the jubilee it’s just too much. I prefer it on the Oyster much like I do the BLRO. With that said to each his own so get what you want!

travisb · 8 September 2021, 07:35 PM

CHNR no doubt!

JSol1 · 8 September 2021, 08:58 PM

I love both. I recently got my BLNR jubilee and it is incredible, definitely become one of my favorites. Having said that, I already own a TT sub and at some point I may trade it for a chnr as I only want one TT in my collection.
If you like both, I would stick with waiting for the BLNR first as the chnr will be easier to add down the road.
If you can have only one-BLNR for me…

garyk · 8 September 2021, 09:18 PM

I’ll take one. I prefer either.

rrags · 8 September 2021, 09:19 PM

Chnr

pedersenkl · 8 September 2021, 09:35 PM

CHNR

Similar situation for me. Was originally after BLNR, but was shown a CHNR as an alternative. I had never really thought about CHNR given two tone generally isn’t my first preference, but it is a gorgeous watch!

Needless to say. I own the CHNR now and really don’t think about the BLNR any longer. CHNR is well refined and comes across as a level up (at a price). I find it’s still flexible with wardrobe, but perhaps not as much as a BLNR.

Good luck. Choose the one you want.

Benzsiam · 8 September 2021, 09:36 PM

I love both but I think Rootbeer looks classier but it's more expensive.

AEV · 8 September 2021, 09:36 PM

Had both and also a BLRO.
Got rid of the CHNR as three GMTs is too much.
No regrets.
BLNR is far more versatile.

JRell · 8 September 2021, 09:48 PM

Don’t do it! SAME thing happened to me. I liked the root beer for awhile and then the brown became more and more brown to me, I couldn’t unsee it. Sold it back. You are waiting for the blrn for a reason. Black and brown is not black and blue. Wait.

DavB · 8 September 2021, 10:18 PM

Depends on what you want more. You can have the Roorbeer and still be on the waitlist with the Batgirl.

Choo Yao Chuen · 8 September 2021, 11:29 PM

I like rootbeer

Cwillis0001 · 8 September 2021, 11:32 PM

Batgirl, definitely.

Harry-57 · 8 September 2021, 11:34 PM

CHNR. And I have turned down a BLNR on Jubilee from my AD.

But the real question is, which one do you prefer?
