Thanks @Ken Brocker! If you don't mind, click through to our website and write a review of the watch. Our customers love to read about the real world experience of others when shopping for watches. Here's the link: www.thewatchbox.com/shop/Rolex-GMT-Master-II-126711CHNR.html Thanks in advance!
This is a very hot watch at the moment. I was fortunate to have a full day to film it, and I expect that this example will sell within 48 hours. Best, Tim
I own both and it's a toss up on how I'm feeling and what I'm doing on any given day. I also own the Batman, Batgirl, and black GMT. The Pepsi and Root Beer are my favorites. Next is the Batman, then the black GMT, and then the Batgirl (just because, given the rest of the GMT part of my collection, it's a bit redundant).
damachine3 Thats wicked cool dude. I have the new Pepsi too, and love the Pepsi and Rootbeer models in particular. Hopefully they come out with a new variation of the Rootbeer this coming year, as well as a Coke.
@@scottrgood Thanks! I think a new Coke is a possibility but they might let things in the GMT line ride another year. I don't think they will introduce another Root Beer this soon. It was jist released at Baselworld 2018. But you never know!
damachine3 No problem man, sweet collection. Ya I think you’re right. I don’t like the way Rolex goes about releasing new models, but I think I understand why they do it like this. I think an all yellow gold Rootbeer on jubilee would be great because it would harken back to the vintage Rootbeer GMT models from the ‘70’s.... but if they came out with an all steel Rootbeer (which they probably never will) or a regular steel Coke, then I would get one of those. I’ll check out your videos later!
Finally gave in and put my name on the local AD's waiting list, I'm number seven apparently and should expect to wait two years for my watch. Well, that's precisely what they told me when I put my name down for the James Cameron Deepsea in 2016 and six weeks later that watch was on my wrist! Let's see if lightning strikes twice!
Did you get it? Really love that watch thinking of putting myself up for one. I've always been doubtful about Rolex and value for money, which for me is important in this hobby. But the rolesor looks like a watch that would fit really nice. Paying 19k euro for a steel daytona or 13-15k for the rolesor seems like an easy choice.
Tim - How do you care for the everose without scratching the polished center links? Specifically - how do you safely remove daily smudges? Is a wet microfiber safe to use?
This watch has got swagger in spades. Long time Rolex owner and I can honestly say this watch is so beautiful, it will make your knees weak. Oozes class and sport elegance like no other in the Professional line up IMO and I have owned alot of them. The Everose pops more on the TT than the solid Everose giving nice contrast. This is perfect example of Rolex getting the colors perfect with the Everose and ceramic bezel. Every shade complements the entire color combo of the watch. Had to buy one even at a premium and what a statement watch. I see the brown on the bezel like a rich tobacco color. This watch would look at home at a swanky cigar lounge in Miami where looking good seems effortless regardless if your dressed up or down. The new Pepsi colors did nothing for me as the ceramic blue and red is a shade off giving it a odd hue in most lighting? The CHNR is the real 2018 Baselworld grand slam. I see this watch going crazy with long waiting lines for a long time to come.
Great video from a couple years ago, thank you, Tim. Watch ticks all the boxes for something I DON'T want, and yet I love it. Too much $$$$ for me, though. Thanks again.
Tim your reviews are amazing. I actually had to look up "resplendent" to see what that means LOL. Great word. Loved your Tudor GMT review describing the "brutality of the bracelet!" Wonderful- I don't know how you do it buddy but keep it up!
Have the first new gen two tone w black dial/bezel gmt 2 I picked up in 2008 shortly after it’s intro. This one looks like an interesting variant. Hasn’t quite grown on me but there are always going to be fan boys who will pick up the newest/latest Rollies and I get it. Good explanation over all.
I bought this same watch last month. Love it. I bought the new Deepsea D-Blue James Cameron (2018 Baselworld) two months ago. Love that too. Finally, I just bought the new Sea-Dweller 50th anniversary 43mm "Red" last week. All from my amazing AD, at retail price (of course...no discounts on these hard to find watches). Great review, by the way.
damachine3 You know, thinking a bit more about your initial post got the needle on my bullshit-o-meter twitching. I know a lot of wealthy people who buy watches and I’ve never heard of anyone going out and buying three Rolexes in quick succession. Also, your comment about getting these watches from your great local AD at retail price is very fishy. Genuine Rolex AD’s are controlled with an iron rod, they are not permitted to sell Rolex watches at discounts and they certainly cannot try to sell them at a premium so your comment makes little or no sense. I seriously doubt that you own any of the watches you claim to have just purchased, frankly. I had a similar discussion on the subject of Seiko with a guy who claimed to have a collection including Patek, IWC, Blancpain, JLC etc etc....turns out he had a Seiko.....just another keyboard bullshitter!
Doug M Nope, I am the real deal (but you are right that I was being juvenile...my bad). I thought some people might think that I am full of shit...but I'm dead serious that I purchased these watches, and one more (also got a Datejust for my wife). I don't blame you, I would probably think the same thing. It can be done and I'm happy to write more tomorrow about exactly how I did it. When I explain it all to you, it will make sense how I did it. I am on the west coast and it is 12: 30a my time...so I'm going to go to bed and then I'll see if I can take the time tomorrow to give you the full details. BTW, I'm anonymous, and will remain that way for obvious reasons, so why would I lie? I can swear to God, I can swear on my wife's life, I can swear on my son's life (I have one boy and his best friend is like a second son to me), and I can go on and on about my life...just to try to prove my point...but I don't care that much to prove you wrong, so I will simply start with how I did it. I can say to myself, I don't give a shit what Doug M thinks...but I'd rather prove you wrong since you sound like a jealous hater. More tomorrow. ;)
Another masterful review Tim. Never been a fan of two-tone but this one is different. It's classy without being too showy or too blingy. One acquaintance from our local watch community is selling the same model for 20K USD. Too expensive imho but nonetheless beautiful watch! Cheers!
Love this watch but I think I’ll let the hype calm down a bit before I make a move on one, there’s a bit of root beer fever around at the moment with fools paying a stupid premium to get their sweaty hands on one!
True. I bought mine last month and have been watching the market for fun. I saw some going for crazy amounts just a few weeks ago and, while they are still selling at a good premium, the market has definitely cooled. Bob's Watches had one going for $23K just a couple of weeks ago and, as of yesterday, they had two for sale--one for $17K and one for $17.5K.
I had the privilege to see the current Pepsi side by side with the rootbeer. It's kind if of like the Me2 Movement vrs Joe Biden. There is no question that the rootbeer takes the crown; it's not even close. If you aspire to be the manly man that you are inside; the rootbeer simply accentuates whatever manly attributes you're bringing to the game and does so in the best of ways. It's respectful, powerful, and cannot be questioned. Nobody questions the Manliness of Sean Connery, Robert Deniro, or Robert Redford. They certainly will NOT be questioning you when they see this on your wrist!
No problem at all, everyone has their preferences! We appreciate you taking time out of your busy day to watch our videos! We know things are quite hectic in San Andreas! - WatchBox Team
There is NOTHING Rootbeer about the current Rootbeer. It’s a two-toned “Rolosor” with a simple brown strip on the bezel. C’mon man! My GF has more brown present on her landing strip. Until Rolex incorporates more Rootbeer back into the dial, this watch is simply flat bubbleless rootbeer. Delivering zero tasty froth on the top. Stick with your women; I’m sure she will taste better than this nonsense on the wrist!

After my prior wrist impressions of a non-runner from Basel, this is the real thing! It's true pre-owned, just in, and ready for delivery!

WatchBox Reviews I love watching this I got myself a gmt 2 full everose root beer and wearing it most days a very nice watch
I just checked this out at the AD and no camera does this justice. It looks so much better in person.
For some reason i prefer this two tone instead of the full rose gold model!
It just looks sooo right....
I have one. It’s very striking . Some watch enthusiasts discount the two tone Rolex models, the “ Root Beer “ is the exception.

So beautiful and classy!
Another jackpot for Rolex, one of the most compelling watches from the last Baselworld!
This is a very hot watch at the moment. I was fortunate to have a full day to film it, and I expect that this example will sell within 48 hours.
Best,
Tim
Got the call from the AD and walked out with a root beer! It's a beauty in person.
Chowdog how long did it take before u got the call? Was this your first Rolex?
I actually like this a lot more than the pepsi
Venus Dee so do I hence I got it. Pays to not just follow the pack blindly!

DB Attar buddy I was lucky enough to get the 126711chnr within 24 hours - get it it’s absolutely stunning in the flesh!!
I want to know if/when you got it 🤷🏻♂️😁
I guess you’re still waiting?
Did you get it?? I'm currently second on a waiting list and my AD says 2 months to go!
black jeans and t-shirt, this watch would look badass and doesn't have to explain itself, it is just cool.
I couldn't agree more
Tim - How do you care for the everose without scratching the polished center links? Specifically - how do you safely remove daily smudges? Is a wet microfiber safe to use?
This watch has me considering whether or not a should bring something two tone back into my collection.
Two tone is hitting hard, the eighties are back baby!
This vs blue two tone submariner which would you pick?
Jay Bee Gmt
Jay Bee GMT
So ridiculous that this is cheaper than the Pepsi on the market currently.
It's so crazy, I honestly think this one is better looking
Indeed and this is far far far better looking - especially on tanned skin!
Now its same price like 18/20k in euro...bought mine ( rootbeer) 19k new in box from 2021 juilly

TheMystro1971 I just got mine. Love it. I also believe will be collectible. Not that many made. Priced just right! :)
Couldn’t agree more. This is an absolute monster on the wrist!! Subtle yet eye catching / it’s imo the most stunning iteration of the gmt2 ever!
great watch can't wait to own one. Best Rolesor GMT made imo not too loud compare with the full everose version.
Best release from Rolex Basel world 2018!
I think this will be a collector's piece one day. First GMT in rose and it is flying below the radar because of the Pepsi.
The pepsi is so seiko imo.
Bernard Bernabe the Pepsi is much older than the skx
Thanks for the review Tim, that Rootbeer is gorgeous. Would you pick this over a BLNR?
This is a better watch than the BLNR.
This looks so much more sophisticated looking than the Batman.
Great video from a couple years ago, thank you, Tim. Watch ticks all the boxes for something I DON'T want, and yet I love it. Too much $$$$ for me, though. Thanks again.
5:55 is that a scratch on the number 14 on the bezel?
Tim, you need to trademark the phrase "with a snick and a snap" before someone steals it! Might be perfect for a WatchBox t-shirt too. Nice review...
Tim your reviews are amazing. I actually had to look up "resplendent" to see what that means LOL. Great word. Loved your Tudor GMT review describing the "brutality of the bracelet!" Wonderful- I don't know how you do it buddy but keep it up!
6:09 you turn the crown at the opposite direction to set the minute hand (clockwise direction), is that normal?
looks great on the wrist
I love rolex since long time. hope by 2019 I will be affordable to purchase it.
We're keeping our fingers crossed for you!!
--Team WatchBox
It’s not about you being able to afford one. Just on how long the waitinglist is, sadly.
Gorgeous!
That it is. I'm surprised that it took Rolex 60+ years to combine rose gold and steel on a GMT.
Best,
Tim
Gorgeous. Prefer it to the pepsi on jubilee
Great, but it ain’t no VC. Trading mine for an Overseas 4500v
Were you able to trade it with 4500v ? Just wonder if you need pay cash on top of it
Great video. Nice, fast, clear and concise. Subscribed!
Thanks for the sub! We appreciate your support of our channel!
--Team WatchBox
How much
nice, but the full Rose Gold 126715 is the holy grail Rose Gold GMT.
Have the first new gen two tone w black dial/bezel gmt 2 I picked up in 2008 shortly after it’s intro. This one looks like an interesting variant. Hasn’t quite grown on me but there are always going to be fan boys who will pick up the newest/latest Rollies and I get it. Good explanation over all.
I can't wait for the sub in everose rolesor!
Baselworld 2020 I reckon, I turn 40 next July and I'm hoping for a sub update that I can put my band down for
Fantastic review sir
Thank you kindly Mr. Chai!

what happened on the bezel around 14 ????
Chris Rabis What do you mean? I can't see any issue or blemish.
Holy Moly! Nice nice nice!!! :)

This is root beer two tone is growing on me.
Absolute stunner!😘😘😍
Love the watch... but two tone unless its yellow gold date just 41 is only for women... especially this rose gold... either all steel or all gold!
My wife wears an Everose Yacht Master 40 Oysterflex all the time.
Love the watch, but my next is gonna be a skydweller :)
Correction: The Rosegold is only made of gold and platinum.
No copper!
Love this watch but I think I’ll let the hype calm down a bit before I make a move on one, there’s a bit of root beer fever around at the moment with fools paying a stupid premium to get their sweaty hands on one!
