Two-tone watches were all the rage in the 90s, but today many collectors have shunned the configuration out of fear they will look like Jordan Belfort. But not all two-tone is created equal, and Rolex has came up with a more youthful interpretation. The Rolex GMT Master II 126711CHNR Rootbeer is a modern take on two-tone, blending Everose gold and 904L stainless steel to create something you would have never seen in two-tone's hey-day.
The black and brown ceramic bezel creates a really interesting tone, the brown ceramic akin to a cup of coffee with a touch of milk. The 40mm case is still of the maxi era, which benefits its design as the modern lug stance distances the watch from two-tone creations of yesteryear. While it incorporates precious metal into its build, the Rolex GMT Master II 126711CHNR Rootbeer is every bit as robust as its full steel brethren. It is Trip-Lock secured with 100 metres water resistance and an Everose screw-down crown. As its proprietary blend name suggests, the rose gold is created never to lose its luster and shine - even over the course of active wear. While not as scratch-resistant as rhodium flashed white gold, rose gold is more resistant than traditional yellow gold - a happy medium between the two.
For those who prefer their GMT Master II on an oyster bracelet, you're in luck! The oyster bracelet features Everose centre links with stainless-steel shoulder links to frame the precious metal. Easylink extension within the highly secure clasp ensures the wearer can fine tune its size and make quick-adjustments at their convenience.

Such an underrated GMT. This is probably the most classiest Rolex out there hands down.
It definitely is.
I am so glad i got this GMT 3 years ago and not Batman or Pepsi. Something just told me it would hold up and be a super sleeper hit. Wait till this discontinue this bad boy. Love love love my Rootbeer.
You think one day it will be stop of production? I got mine tomorow !!!🔥💪
Why would they stop making a winner??
@@ehteshamraja332 they always do 😂
You realize the margin to be made on a Pepsi is higher than a Rootbeer right? Do you love your watch, or do you just love the money you stand to make?
@@mikec3454 but i’m not selling so margin’s don’t matter to me.
OMG my next watch. Two tone is DEFINITELY BACK! I think this is a fantastic summer watch, would love to add this piece to my collection. So warm.
The most beautiful GMT ever made. Future classic!!!
Best rolex hands down . Future classic and super hot model
SHHHHH, you’re supposed to keep talking about BLRO and BLNR and hype them up, so I can finally get my hands on a CHNR 😅🤣
Dude $19-$22k USD in reseller market right now. Insane. I got so lucky paying MSRP 2 years ago.
@@richsun247 You're lucky. I had to pay resale price for mine.
i know it's kinda off topic but does anybody know of a good website to watch newly released movies online?
This is my Rolex grail no comparison.
This and the cartier Santos in 2-tone are the 2 best steel & gold watches out there at the moment
Coolest Rollie out. Sporty and classy with a dash of retro cool. Rock this watch in any environment. Killer.
i do feel this is the best two tone watch.
Just got a call after a long wait since covid full Rose gold root beer top of the line .
I love it,I wear it more than my panda Daytona
I am also collector of Rolex as well as Patek .
This looks pretty slick to me. Thanks.
I have just purchased one today to add to my small Rolex collection and it’s gorgeous
My Batman was my favorite until I got the new Rootbeer...I never thought I'd say that. The combination of colors is simply amazing!
Love my rootbeer, it looks good with a suit or with jeans.
I am an owner of this watch. I stand by your comments . However, I do get an accuracy of +3 seconds per day and am not
happy with it! Even Seiko watches always do better than stated accuracy.
+3 seconds/day it's OK!! Trust me!! It's an absolutely gorgeous timepiece!!! Enjoy!!! 🥰
I would go with two tone case and standard metal bracelet combo 🙂
The best is the root beer Ever Rose !!
Tudor rootbeer is giving this one a run for the money. The brushed two tone may be a better look than the the polished
Simple answer would be - yes.
Fingers crossed. A few years now and counting.
Beautiful...
Beauty, cheaper than the Pepsi and better!
Cheaper? No , sale price at 1k at grey market and 14k on rolex ad , pepsi 9k...
@@stemystemy1135 you can’t get the Pepsi at retail, 20k plus on the grey market! My AD, can get me the Root Beer GMT in a month for 15 K, the Pepsi is impossible, that’s my point!
@@simonassouline45 in french ? Its around the same time one wating list ...your ad can have in a month maybe but not all you can belive on me dude...for 20k i prefere have gold and watch at 15k and not steel and watch at 9k...20k for steel and for watch everyone want , have , wear...
I prefere 100 times rootbeer than pepsi or batman , look like toy watch imo...
@@stemystemy1135 Hi! American, parents were from Morocco, deceased now! I get your vibe bro, Gold is a much better value instead of 904 Oyster Steel from Rolex! Gold is to flashy and apparent to the public! The steel watch’s, Submariner and GMT Master 2 are more under the radar! Out of all the Rolex models, these are the only 2 I love! Can’t stand the Daytona, to much hype especially the 116500LN Panda 30K plus, no date window, hate the chronograph’s, look’s much smaller than GMT or Submariner! Enjoy your Rolex’s, God Bless!
@@simonassouline45 thanks bro , yes iam not fan of daytona , only oysterflex with chocolat bezel , and yes under the radar but bow all know its 20k , pepsi or batman same price than rootbeeer for me its crazy for 904 steel ...where i live its dangerous , complicated to wear my 16613lb so my rootbeer 🙈😅 in winter under the sweater hahaha , but i wear for me so if no one can see her its perfect for me ...
Have a nice day dude
What waitlist? They see what’s in demand and reduces the supply more by making it seem like it’s rare.
Exactly.
There is no waitlist. Only a preferred client list. At least that's the case over here in Asia. And that's also why I have this watch and I had to pay resale price for it.
Um I would like one of those for sure.
Great looking!!!
Very Well made real nice💯%
Rolex sky dweller champagne two tone best bi metal piece but this lovely
Yes it is
It’s a beauty
The only two-tone I like.
This is nice but its nothing compared to the bluesy with its sunburst dial..
It’s a beautiful watch but I hate a Rolex two tone bracelets ..for me they just look wrong .. I’ve the two tone SeaQ with the canvas strap which adds a little rough to the bling
Beautiful watch. But the YM2 is the most beautiful two tone with its stunning blue bezel
🤢
Root beer during day and Batman at night.
Ive just got a 2023 root beer..........
❤
Awesome👏🏻😎🤩!
Barbecue sauce Rolex!!!
A nice pint of Guinness mixed with Bass Ale. (Black & Tan)
the best bicolor.
Cartier santos two tone?
Also nice. Also 5980 1a/r
the new bluesy is the best two tone....
Root beer > Bluesy
BRUH !!!!!!😏
TT never left. Why pay more for SS than TT? How dumb would you have to be to pay more for steel than for steel and gold.
Pointless as you can’t buy one.
Pay resale price if you really like it. There's almost no chance for anyone without a purchase history to get Rolex professional models from the ADs.
I like it but the best Rolex two tone is definitely the Submariner 116113LB or 126113LB Bluesy.
16613lb blusy is the most nice with the best blue , more deep and crazy with the sun
And it’s made to wear on the LEFT wrist.
I think if your left handed you wear on the right
@@connerhenson7115 so, choose a left handed watch...
No. Do you want to tell the time? Use your phone. Do you want something that's fashionable? Buy a timex.
Why do people buy Jordans and Yeezys when $20 shoes can do the same job? People just want nice things when they can afford it.
@@therealkiasu agreed, it's all about pleasure it gives you.
Yes it is
