GMT - Rose vs Yellow
Anyone own 126718GRNR and the 126715CHNR or one and have tried other...? Thoughts?

Both are very nice. I chose the GRNR as I prefer the color combo better. When it was first released I was immediately drawn to it. Part of that was the jubilee bracelet. I much prefer a jubilee bracelet over an oyster with PCL. The PCL's are scratch magnets whereas the jubilee is not.

I agree, the jubilee is a deceiving bracelet … appears more delicate, but it’s actually hard wearing and shows less wear than a PCL Oyster IMO |

The 5CHNR is a watch I've never seen another person wearing. I'm sure they ate out there. I own one and it's fantastic. The best part is that the only full RG rotating bezel watch. Then again the YG griner comes on jubilee so that pretty sweet.

I completely agree. I am drawn to this watch. It's a stunner in person. I just stopped by my AD this week to try on again and say hi. Been on list for a few months and impatiently waiting for a call. |

If you are ok with the bling factor I’d go the yg back grey. That’s a beauty. I had the rootbeer and found it uninspiring so moved it on

After comparing both side by side at AD, both are beautiful but rose gold edges a little to my liking and no regrets ever since.

I went with the GRNR over Root Beer solely because of the Jubilee. Its such a different watch than my Sub, but it definitely also has the additional bling factor.
Rootbeer is gorgeous, but much more subtle than the GRNR. |

YG would be my personal choice. I’ve owned it and would pick it again over the RG.

Noticed that white gold blue dials are now around same price... Okay - white, yellow, or rose - which one and why.......?

I've owned the CHNR in both TT and full gold and I enjoy the watch but it's very subdued. Works better in TT imo.
And I currently own the GRNR in full gold. The all gold jubilee is amazing! |
