Excellent shots guys. The watches do look very distinct on the wrist. Quite unique each in their own way.

I don’t own either yet, but tried both on and the full RG is in my opinion stunning. The TT didn’t feel as refined to me. That said, I know I’d wear a TT more than a full RG one simply because of the versatility.
But if we are talking simply in terms of preference, RG gets my vote, no doubt. |

As others have said, the TT is the nicest TT in their catalogue and I'd say yes if offered one. However, if given the choice, it would be the full gold for me. It's just dreamy to look at and more together in it's appearance.

TT is surprisingly more interesting to look at.

I have to say that black dial on the new one is such a miss….

Apples and oranges, can't compare steel with gold. Rough material vs noble material.
Let's level the playing field and imagine for a minute that TT is in fact platinum and gold, instead of steel and gold. Also, let's say prices of gold and platinum are very similar. Which one would I pick? Two-tone, without a doubt. |

I am blessed to have a decent Rolex PM collection but always wanted the full RG version of the GMT. I think your pics have pushed me over the edge to make sure I include one!

The only answer to this question is :
The TT here is like buying the V4 or V6 version of the car when you can't afford (justify its all the same) the V8 version whereby you clearly know that V8 is the better choice but keep on struggling with regret or justifying yourself and the world that what you bought is wiser , smarter with same seats / AC / better mileage... By deep down inside you KNOW V8 is better and hence my choice is RG.

TT all the way. If possible, gives it more of a utilitarian look than RG.

Except the look is not almost the same, the TT Rootbeer is much more beautiful, and interesting than the full gold in my opinion. usually full gold versions are better looking than TT, this is what makes the TT Rootbeer special. I can afford any gold Rolex, but would never consider a full gold Rootbeer, yet I lusted over the TT until I got it. The saying that if you can't afford the full gold then go for TT doesn't apply for this TT Rootbeer, just like it doesn't apply for most steel Rolex. The TT rootbeer is in the same club as the in demand steel sports Rolex now.

I am not specially a gold fan, but I prefer them to a TT. Definitely TT are not for me.

Here’s my 126711. It’s been getting more wrist time lately having languished unworn in the safe since buying it from the AD in 2018.
