Sub is a staple, cornerground in any collection, and a no date one, the OG. Rootbeer makes sense to add GMT that is not too similar to the Sub.
I have both, so I am quite biased. :D p.s. They have the same case, difference is in the bezel width (40.2 vs 40.5) and the sub has a tad thicker back. |

Root Beer, the two tone is way more muted and complementary than I thought it would be.

CHNR > Bluesy > Daytona.
Not interested in a black Sub nor a BLNR.

Based purely on looks.
1. TT blue Sub (best looking by far) 2. Sub (good looking in a stern utilitarian way) 3. Daytona (OK, bit cramped and busy though) 4. GMT BLNR (meh) 5. TT GMT (brown...nuf said) |

Root Beer, I had a BLNR Batgirl - seemed very cold to me. Love my Root Beer two tone - just a very different wearing experience... I think the 2 tone Root Beer for whatever reason is better than the all-gold. With my skin tone - the all-rose gold kind of blended into my skin tone. The SS isolates the Rose Gold and for me on my skin makes it pop.
New pepsi - you pay for the hype. Prices on Root Beers seem really good right now.. Maybe 10% to 15% premium over retail vs. the 50% to 90% premium you will pay for a BLNR and the 100% to 130% for a BLRO. |

Rootbeer (or Pepsi), Sub (starbucks) and Panda Daytona. That’s it for me for now

Honestly, it kinda depends where you're at in your watch journey.
If you're just starting out, you can't beat a steel sub. If you've got a few pieces, then the bluesy/BLNR/CHNR are all viable options. If you're looking to complete a collection, then the Daytona. Good luck, |
