I've got a ceramic sub with date. I would not trade it for the two-tone rose GMT. That mainly has to do with the fact I like the BLNR w/jubilee much better, and more than anything I like the full everose gold GMT.

I've got the 114060 Sub and just bought the TT Everose GMT (haven't picked it up yet). I don't usually like TT's but the Everose its just so classy (I think yellow gold looks too old fashioned now).

The plan is to wear the sub on more casual days and the GMT on more dressier days. I think if you want a watch with more WOW factor though go for the GMT.

If I really had to choose I'd keep the Sub. Its just so comfortable and looks great with jeans and a T-Shirt as well as a suit.

Oh ok, didn't realize you already had both. Thought you were deciding which to purchase. Both are fantastic. I really love that GMT!

If this is your first and will be either/or for now, I'd get Sub.

I would almost always choose all SS.
Not in this case though. CHNR please.

CHNR. There are only two TT Rolex watches that I love. This is one of them, and the one I love the most.

Easy - TT GMT Root Beer. No comparison.

You’re comparing apples to oranges here.

There’s no comparison to be made. Both totally different.

If a basic diver is all you want, then get the sub, if you want something far more sophisticated, get the CHNR.

I prefer the SS Submariner to the TT GMT. The full RG GMT is another story.

I like the CHNR more but if this is going to be your first Rolex I would get the Sub.

Yeah this isn't really a fair comparison because both watches are so different. If I had to chose it would the CHNR but as the perfect everyday one watch on all occasions - it would have to be the black sub.
A better comparison would be a black sub versus green or CHNR versus BLNR but I get that a CHNR and Black Sub are relatively straight forward to get then either the hulk/batman.

TT GMT-CHNR (Rootbeer) is better looking watch but comes with higher price tag than SS Sub also.

It seems like everyone who buys a Rootbeer has to clarify that they don't like TT or gold to maintain their SS street cred or something. You're getting a gold watch, rose gold nonetheless. Just own it.

That being said, I love the TT Rootbeer GMT and hope to add it to my collection one day. Beautiful watch.

I think its because most TT watches here get hate, so they always try to clarify what team they usually side with, BUT the low-key Rose sucked them in...

As for me, I've always loved two-tone watches... I prefer TT over Stainless anyday...If Im buying a premium watch at a premium price, I will have a premium metal...
