The Rootbeer CHNR had the Wow factor that you hadn't seen before in a black/brown bezel and how it balances with the steel and rosegold in TT version. Until now...

Of course almost every brand already has their own Pepsi (red/blue) versions or "homages", but I didn't think one would come out for the Rootbeer CHNR.

Now when I look at my CHNR, I can't help but think back to this upcoming Ball model. Kind of disgusted because I don't think it looks good at all. Anybody else upset?

Honestly, it shouldn’t matter nor hinder your enjoyment of your GMT CHNR in any way.

I think the proportions are off.

“Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery that mediocrity can pay to greatness.”

Oscar Wilde got it right.

Looks a mess.....its giving me a headache just looking at it never mind using it.

Doesn't bother me - it's just some brown coloration on an otherwise completely different watch.

learningtofly · 30 June 2020, 06:31 PM

Are you serious?

sgwatchguy · 30 June 2020, 06:35 PM

Not upset. Doesn’t bother me honestly.

yoast · 30 June 2020, 06:41 PM

You don't have to buy one. Just like probably no one else will

Looks great! :)

brown + black on a watch bothers me in general.

Too much going on on that poor dial...

I’m not a huge fan of this. Enjoy your CHNR, this shouldn’t interfere with that.

I didn't know the color brown or bicolor bezels was trademarked by Rolex, stop getting disgusted and just enjoy your watch.
