I love that watch. I’ve always said myself, if i were to only own one watch, yours would be the one for all occasions. Congratulations.

Congrats! I too am not a fan of two tone but walked in to an AD in Palm Springs last weekend and was offered the CHNR. Was shocked at its beauty on the wrist and didn’t hesitate! Triple surprise: 1) they had it 2) it’s amazing in person 3) I bought it. LOL. Enjoy!

I too am very surprised that I like the watch enough to buy it. I always thought if you want PM then buy a full PM watch. But I have completely had my mind changed after seeing this watch In person.

Congrats on your new watch I hope you enjoy it.

I had a similar reaction when I first saw it on my wrist last year, one of the most detailed and striking pieces out there. Should've pulled the trigger then but went in a different direction, will look to add it soon.

Best TT Rolex I’ve seen. I think it would even be more awesome on a high end brown strap.

Congrats on the hat! It’s so nice they threw in a free watch.

I’ve been reluctant to join the two tone camp just as you have been. I’m a convert now as well. Enjoy that bad boy!

Congrats! I've had mine for a little over a month, and I still can't get over it. Wanted to test the power reserve a couple days ago, as this is my first 32XX series movement...I made it 48 hours, and decided that was good enough for me. I just couldn't keep it off my wrist any longer. I may never know if the PR can make it to 70 hours.

Long story short, you made an excellent choice!
