I've never seen a decent picture taken in an AD. Those LED lights are awful for watches and never make them look good.

It looks bad because the photo.

What did you use a iPhone 8 or something. LOL

Pictures and the quality make huge impact on how things look.

My vote is for the CHNR still being the king of the two tones, I'd love to see it on a rose/ss Jubilee someday.

I strongly favor the CHNR. IMO...it's brilliant!

No offense but that’s a terrible picture. I’ve seen other pictures that make it look terrific. I’ll reserve my opinion until seen in person.

Would look better on oyster?

Makes the lugs look terrible.... Need to update the case shape similar to the sub and make the bracelet wider at the lugs?

I think it’s a way nicer piece on the full YG bracelet. That said, not one I’d be looking to add even if I had the extra cash laying around for it. Beautiful thing about collecting watches;
There’s pieces for everyone! One man’s “absolutely not” is another’s “take my money!”

Agreed.

Not a TT fan any longer, last TT was 9 years ago and I don’t like the bezel colors.

Rolex with all there GMT bezel colors go well, BLNR, BLRO, CHNR, Coke, even the VTNR but this one is no dice for me.

Maybe a stainless model with the normal platinum pvd. Oh wait Rolex already did that. Kinda lol

Lugs. All I see is lugs. You are looking at the last extinct dinosaur before the evolution of the new GMT that will be out soon.

Agree if does, which is a shame as I like the jubilee bracelet better.

You trolling or something? Having owned both (BLNR , LV) I’d be lying if I say I notice the difference when even holding them up right next to each other.
