Kermit, no doubt. The most beautiful of tool / everyday watches. Plus, the green is iconic with Rolex.

Apples and oranges. Not a fair comparison, both are killer watches for their particular model. You cannot go wrong with either.

Many here having trouble understanding what watch they own.
Kermit == 16610LV… that means an aluminum insert, not ceramic. Pick an early 16610LV with flat 4. |

After owning both I found the CHNR a bit too warm on tone for me. The LVC is bright and perfection with the new case/bracelet. The contrast between the green ceramic and gloss black dial is stunning.

I just like simple divers over the more complicated GMT. I don't travel across time zones much and really have no use for the extra hassle when setting a watch which I've not worn in rotation for a while.

I went with the rootbeer......and not an ounce of regret. Love it! Next up either BLRO or Starbucks, whichever becomes available first.

Both beautiful pieces but I’d go Root Beer - stunning piece in person

LV for the win!
The large numbers on the bezel of the GMT ruin it for me

CHNR if you have a collection that includes a diver.
LV if it is the one SS you have I currently own the CHNR. I sold my 12 to my SA as they would not let him buy one and I had the Hulk. Since then I have sold the Hulk as I really love the newer dimensions of the 41 sub. Plan to get the 12 again. I love the warmth the rose gold brings. It is less in your face but yet elegant but for me, not an everyday watch. |

GMTs and Subs are my favorite Rolex models. GMTs normally win out in a competition. But between these two I would go Submariner. I owned a CHNR and never liked it compared to my BLRO and BLNR. So off it went......

Tough call I have them both.
If your goal is to have them both, get the cermit from grey market now. Try to get the Rootbeer from your AD |

I prefer the Rootbeer over the Kermit/Starbucks. I do have the Kermit/Starbucks and it is great. But I have still been lusting over the Rootbeer which I will hopefully get in the next 3 months. In my opinion, the Rootbeer is the best looking 2 tone Rolex sports watch ever with the Bluesy being a distant 2nd. Having said that, there is room for both in a collection.
