So true. I recently looked back at the forums when it first came out. Many (including myself) didn’t get it. Then you see it in person and my goodness this watch is good. Just so so so good.

Rootbeer = yellow ... the new CHNR means Chocolat Noir ... so should be a dark beer or dark stout

I just recently got into the world of Rolex with my yacht-master 40 126622 and love it, but now I’ve found myself wanting this root beer more and more after I had said to myself that I’d only want one Rolex. Watchfinder, you guys bring passion and emotion to your videos and on behalf of all who love watches, I say thanks a million for what you guys do! 🙌🏼👏🏼
