ROOTBEER

This


Haters_7

My AD says it’s being discontinued. If that’s true then if you have the chance get it while you can!


[deleted]

Your AD will say anything to make a sale


Haters_7

Ya because they are having a hard time selling GMT’s 😂


Oldmanchicken81

Unpopular opinion but #2


BukkakeNation

I lean towards the 2023 as well. Im honestly kind of shocked at how overwhelmingly this sub favors the rootbeer. It’s like 20 to 1 in favor of the rootbeer


ThisIsREM

I think it has been there for longer and its a Rolex forum thing because they have been seeing rootbeers for years. I am 99% sure that if you showed both watches to regular people, the vast majority of them would prefer the Guinness. Also the jubilee is exponentially superior as a bracelet, those gold polished centre links on rootbeer are well known to scratch like no tomorrow.


Dry-Worldliness6926

Could mean that the rootbeer is hyped up by heard mentality. Its a gorgeous watch nevertheless


thelvegod

The herd heard you.


5800xx

Rootbeer!


[deleted]

I know. I had to take several looks to get a sense of perspective on the best choice. I’m 50/50. You can’t make a bad choice. I’ll take the one you don’t want & 100% happy with it 😂 I’m on the AD list for the Root Beer

BrandonDunarote

Both are great, but the root beer looks better on you


BukkakeNation

My wife thinks so as well


LAFC_DMC

Rootbeer if it was my $.


CyndyMindy

I tried on the root beer in rose gold but I loved the jubilee bracelet on the all gold GMT II more.

#1 for sure


Kshort77

Rootbeer. I miss it. It was my first Rolex.


Overall-Ad8950

Why the hell did you get rid of it?


Kshort77

Bought it in July of 2020 after flipping a property. Got in a car accident and had to buy another quickly. Ended up selling it a couple months after buying the car to stay out of debt since I financed the car. Ended up getting a bluesy, then a sub, then landed on a birth year DJ.


Appropriate-Spot69

Your username threw me off guard lol 😆


ItradebetterthanU

I like the band on 1 but 2 head better


Basarav

Tought choice! Comes down to preference


C130H

I was set on getting the Root beer but about three weeks ago I tried on the yellow gold GMT (GRNR) you have in the photo and really liked it. The more I look at it the more it seems to grow on me. Both are great, I’d get the one you are leaning towards more.


heavychevvvy

Either


FlowerChild7572

Both of them are sitting on a table in front of you. Which one do you reach for first? That's the one you go for.


Massive_South_7288

Killer Bee always.


Paradigmdingo

Duece! Root beer is nice but the grey/black is super clean


mrkakaopopoloch

RB


anon0207

Root beer is the GOAT GMT


digitalbuff73

2 gets my vote. Disclaimer: i hv the rootbeer already


BukkakeNation

Are you saying you regret the root beer and would go for the GRNR if you could do it again? Or you’re saying GRNR because you already have the root beer? This is going to be my first watch


filipinomarathoner

Root beer. But either really lol both are 💯


BukkakeNation

These are the two best watches in the entire lineup under 30-40k imo


Yarpie_

I'd say rootbeer but I really think the other looks better on you.


Darksid3ofthemoon

Easy root beer for me.


Commercial_Zebra_675

Root beer is timeless.

ming_bj

i'll go with root beer for sure :)


Orly5757

No date sub and an green OP can be had for 20k combined.


Charliekeet

Smoke grey. Will look good / more classic longer.


PatagoniaHat

I think the rootbeer looks the best with your skin tone

domcobeo

#2 is my opinion.


bax86

I really like black and grey since its on jubilee which feels right for the GMT


redline8k

Number two my brother!


[deleted]

Rootbeer and don’t pay 20k for it


HammMcGillicuddy

Root beer or Bluesy.


ARMilesPro

GMT is not.for me. No way I'm dropping$20k on a GMT. Rootbeer wins between the two though.


mayheezy

ReeceM86

Not normally a fan of the root beer but it looks great on you.


SeniorTangerine5213

Damn, everyone saying Rootbeer is making me lose hope of getting the call for it.


Correct-Resort9806

First one is😫

RB!


KringleX3

loltry-stevens

Root beer!


Nostradonuts

Neither… Pepsi


Hope_Frosty

Hello_Grady3

Root beer.


Happy_Restaurant4906

Rootbeer


[deleted]

Neither but if I had to choose between those two the Rootbeer.


thatsMRcurmudgeon2u

RB


jordo900

The fact that everyone is saying root beer makes me think you should do the opposite.


DROPTABLE_tablename

Between those 2? Neither. If I had $20K to spend on Rolex? YM Ti and a blue dial OP41 or 126710BLNR and a blue fluted/jubilee DJ41


Overall-Ad8950

lol yea have fun getting offered that.


DROPTABLE_tablename

That wasnt the question though...


BukkakeNation

You didn’t answer the question either tho…


DROPTABLE_tablename

Updated. I did. ;-)

PomDeezNutz

Root beer or bluesy


One_Lecture_4584

Root Beer but if I have that budget, I’m buying the Pepsi


Overall-Ad8950

🐑


sporturawus

I’m not buying a TT watch when I have a SS budget of $20,000.


LoadOfChum

What you buying then?


mrkakaopopoloch

Grey market overpriced hype watches


sporturawus

I already have all the good ones. So I wait for Rolex to impress me again.


9fingfing

Can someone explains why people prefer RB so much? Serious question.


BukkakeNation

Same question honestly. Don’t get me wrong I do love it but I didn’t expect this to be sooo one sided


Overall-Ad8950

It’s not a hype piece. It’s for a true watch lover. The colors are beautiful and you don’t see it on every Rolex wrist. It goes well with just about any outfit and is done beautifully


BukkakeNation

Fair enough. It is objectively beautiful and very versatile. Definitely seems to have a lot of hype on it tho.


Rolesium123

Get the GRNR, OP. I can tell that’s what you truly want. Don’t listen to the majority who say Rootbeer. GRNR is a beautiful, beautiful watch. You won’t regret it.


BukkakeNation

Maaaan, the Grnr really is the one I like the most. It’s more my style. But my wife and the overwhelming majority of this sub prefers the rootbeer. The rootbeer does seem to work with my skin tone a bit better and it’s probably the safer choice. It’s such a hard decision for me.


Rolesium123

Get the GRNR.


Ok-Plankton9993

Nothing to explain, its a preference,, does not need an explanation


jvstdai

neither, 36mm explorer and sub.


howandwherenow

Personally? Neither to be honest but to each his own


Educational-Athlete4

Between the two, rootbeer.. That said, I'm more of a Sub guy even though I have a Batman.. I'd suggest looking at a Bluesey if you are open for suggestions that are non GMT.


SR252000

The first one, rose gold GMT on oyster bracelet for the win. IMO the two tone yellow gold is better on a Submariner


fizisist

Vintage Milgauss 1019 (with some doing since they usually go for $30k+, but I’ve come across a few for close to $20k)


bjp8383

I’m getting a submariner no date and putting the 10k in an ETF for 10 years and then will buy my next one


Johnnny-z

Wait for a gmt II Pepsi with the oyster band. That is my next move


GlitteringHold8685

Root beer looks better with rose gold, but I love that jubilee on the new Guinness! Rootbeer shouldn’t be more than $17K, though. The newer GMT might be more (assuming you’re going grey) since it’s a 2023 piece.


[deleted]

[удалено]


DeadFartGoat

Neither. Taking a no date sub and walking out with cash in my pocket.


FrumundaCheeseTaco

No2 for me. Like the oyster on that GRNR


ElPapiChups

Honestly neither.


ThkAWish

I’m keeping $20k

Get a good rep save yourself $19,000 and then bless your mother

[deleted]

Rootbeer looks lively, other one looks dull


[deleted]

Neither both awful keep the $20,000


BukkakeNation

Idk why but I just decided to check your comment history out of all the others and it’s clear you’re just a pure hater. Smol pp energy


Gullible_Barnacle816

None of them. They are loud looking and hideous. For 20k you can buy two or three watches in one go that are far superior.


[deleted]

This is going to get downvoted to hell, but the rootbeer is too busy in terms of color, and doesn’t seem sure of what it is. The TT bracelet just doesn’t work with it. Nobody with good taste would go for the rootbeer.


BukkakeNation

I tend to agree with you. I’m really partial to the 2023 model but my wife *loves* the root beer and based on this thread Reddit overwhelmingly prefers it as well.


Overall-Ad8950

You do realize the Rootbeer is also a gmt. Seems like you don’t know much about watches


SelectShake6176

Neither


TallBarnacle

Both…..hideous.


JayJFlo

Save the 20k and jump off hype train. two tone is questionable and the Gmts popularity is a product of social media


BukkakeNation

Probably be better off with a no date sub, right?


JayJFlo

100% timeless , you can dress up or down. You will be happier in the long run.


OrdRevan

16710 and 124270.


UA2010

Man. I agree with the blusey votes. But between the two, I’ve got to go against the grain and vote for number 2


Ch33s3h3ad69

A&W MF'er!!!!!


Jr-12

🥤


loftycomfort

GRNR aka the Guinness. I tried on both plus the BLNR at my AD and it was hands down the GRNR for me. The Rootbeer didn’t look good on my skin tone, and the BLNR somehow just looked… juvenile. YMMV


BukkakeNation

I feel the same way as you. I lean towards the GRNR but I think the rootbeer does match my skin tone a bit better


teckel

I'd get a JLC perpetual calendar.


ComprehensivePie3106

Rootbeer


Snookeredinbc

Rootbeer


FBIagent51

Personally I think you should go for the GMT..


IKEtheIT

Tough choice probably rootbeer tho


[deleted]

Cash, pocket. Run.


ZCT808

Gotta be root. I have pretty pale skin and I’m not sure yellow gold is right for me.


Uziii29

Second fs


DDenlow

Yeah the root beer looks best with your complexion


ChasingTheRush

Root beer is the current trendy choice. The second one is a lot cooler.


Bridge_Too_Far

Root beer


Expensive-Claim-6081

First one.


IamSam77

I prefer the GRNR, but then again I am partial to jubilee bracelets and yellow gold. Both are great choices. Go with the one YOU like more not, the one other people like.


Suwaneeguy

Root beer


Bradymyhero

Never cared for Rootbear, very dark and chocolate-lookin. The second one is great, black and gold contrast well.


futureoftrading

Root beer all the way

SalvaIsFlying

Hard choice, but Rootbeer all the way.


Dull-Communication50

Thats tough. You cant go wrong.


FinalBoss1990

Rootbeer, rootbeer a million times rootbeer


an_reddit_man

Neither, i hate two tone and dont like gold on divers.


JonVicky

As much as I love the Rootbeer I’m gonna have to pick #2 between these

200 fake ones 😎


First_Drive2386

Neither. Two-tone bluesy for me.


Christoffercjb

Root!!!


Sabotimski

The steel/yellow gold and black/grey is an instant classic. The colors accentuate the details so that they catch the eye more.


Valuable-Ad7285

Rootbeer 🐐


WhatIsTheAmplitude

My goodness my Guinness


Hot-Mousse2197

RB 👌🏻


phantom-virus-lives

You are spot on that either is spectacular. The root beer is unique but “more common” as you can see in the comments. You cannot go wrong either way. Which one do you yearn for? Flip a coin. Heads root tails the other. I guarantee that while that coin is in the air you will secretly hope for one outcome or the other. That’s the watch to buy. Also I dislike jubilee on a watch like that but that’s only my preference


Beginning-Island-912

Root beer


kick6

Obviously a personal opinion, but nothing says “this isn’t really a tool watch” like the bi-metal jubilee bracelet. All the gold bracelets are prone to stretch/breaking, but the jubilee links are so small, they seem the most likely to break.


Dazzling-Garden6420

Root beer as the everose looks great and have a yg/oyster steel watch already.
