I’ve had mine 6 months now. Not tired of it at all, it’s beautiful and I use the complication all the time, even when I’m not traveling. I’d wear it more if it was work attire appropriate for me. Get it!

No watches do any more.
Then why do you keep buying watches if they don’t excite you anymore?

Who said watches don't excite me? Do you now how many I have?

And whats with all the questions. You writing a book?

I just simply said I like the CHNR, but it doesn't keep me up at night. I have a life beyond watches.

I just picked mine up Monday at my AD.. I absolutely love this watch. I think it is the most unique GMT Master out there now. I love it so much I am going to get a second SS bracelet from an Sub to swap depending on occasion. I think the rolesor bracelet is a bit dressy so I see me using the SS bracelet as my daily wearer. I will do a post shortly I just got it yesterday and first time seeing it in the daylight today. What an incredible watch, none of the pics or videos do it justice. I feel lucky and very happy to have obtained one from my AD!

Love it, however, I am a tee shirt and jeans guy and often feel it is a little dressy for that.

I used to worry about that, but I came to realize it's how you wear it, not so much what you wear. I'm a 5-digit guy at heart, but the CHNR is making me take a fresh look at this idea.

It’s my next Rolex for sure. I’m actually avoiding AD’s at the moment for fear of one being available ‘cos I know I’ll be forced to drop the cash for it straight away if I’m holding it in my hands!
It’s the most desirable GMT Master to my mind for many years because it looks so right, TT or not. I think it looks better than the full Rose gold version in fact.

I thought for sure I would love this watch; the pictures are just beautiful. My AD called me this past weekend and said it just came in if I was interested. I went in fully expecting to drop the coin, but left empty handed. I absolutely love the bezel colors and gold combo, but I just can’t get past the particular tone of Rolex rose gold. It does not work well on me, and reminds me of something I’d see at the Macy’s jewelry counter.

My opinion notwithstanding, I still think it looks amazing—just not on me, sadly. I would definitely visit this reference in person to make sure it’s a good fit for you.

Let me know how you get on. I tried to put the jubilee bracelet, from my SS BLRO, onto my LVC, but the end links wouldn’t sit properly. Didn’t try swapping the other way.

Also, absolutely love my CHNR. Wasn’t bothered by pictures, but when I had it on my wrist, I was blown away. Bought it right there and then.

So the ss bracelet from the 116610 will fit it?

In low light this watch is amazing. Pretty in the day but I love wearing mine in the evening.
