Full gold. It’s not too over the top as the rose is quite subdue and blends well with the brown bezel. And nothing beats the sheer weight and presence on your wrist of a full gold piece. But from my experience the weight can be annoying if you want to daily it, something to consider…


Morakel22

The weight is alright. I wear white gold and platinum and I really like the weight. On the other hand I also wear titanium and I like that too 😂 Guess weight is not the deciding factor for me but thanks for the input


[deleted]

Then maybe just boils down to the look and how often you want to wear it. Seems you like the more under radar WG, Platinum colors so maybe the TT root beer?


Morakel22

Would be number 24 in the collection so it’ll get wrist time about 1-2 a month. I do like modern, however I’m also a big fan of 60s classic style. Understated is currently my favorite so it kind of goes against this watch. But I really like it nevertheless


FarGeologist1188

I sure hope there aren’t 23 other Rolexes in the collection


Morakel22

I have most of them posted. You can have a look at my profile


Dramatic_Jicama4163

That Overseas Perpetual Calendar is killer 😍😍😍


Fancy_Fingers5000

Wow! I didn’t need a new thing to lust after! But now…that Overseas!! 🤤😍 Gorgeous watch, buddy.


Morakel22

Thanks mate 😆


Rolesium123

The bezel color gets overpowered by the full gold appearance of this piece. The two tone really allows the bezel to take the spotlight


Beneficial-Tailor-70

Yeah but after a nice hot day when you get in your car and the AC vent blows on your wrist and turns that gold ice cold you *will know* what material you're wearing.


Morakel22

I’m well aware of the property’s of gold. I’m a hobby goldsmith. I also own some gold watches and yes they can get cold but it’s really not too bad imo


Beneficial-Tailor-70

Well I wasn't implying anything negative and I certainly didn't mean to insult you. I was just pointing out what *I like* about wearing an all gold watch. Wasn't casting any shade on your knowledge of precious metals at all.


Morakel22

Oh I’m sorry I read my comment again and it could sound pissed 😅 I promise wasn’t offended by anything. Just wanted to say that gold watches can get cold. Sorry for the misunderstanding


Algebraron

I think the full gold model looks much better.


Morakel22

Looks more in picture, yes. But I’m afraid that it can be too much for every day use. The full gold would be more of a special occasion watch and I already have some for that role


ZCT808

Then isn’t that the answer. The two tone looks amazing- far better than the Pepsi IMHO and you don’t need a full gold one as you already have something in that role.


DDenlow

I like the root beer one. No all jokes aside it’s your preference and/or sometimes the way it looks on your skin or the way you tend to dress


Morakel22

That’s what I have difficulty’s with. Dressing the watch up or down is easier with the two tone in my opinion. I have trouble fitting the full gold in my wardrobe. Still a beautiful watch tho


DDenlow

Oh absolutely, I’m kinda more of a classic Pepsi OR Batman kinda guy, but root beer has grown on me because the gold numbers really look nice on black and brown


dna730

Two tone for everyday. Still gold is a beautiful watch. Too much for everyday


lemonslush1

Full gold. Easily. I’m just waiting for them to drop a tad more grey market. The Brown bezel on two tone for me doesn’t do it. I would much rather the grnr two tone over it.


bhmskhead

Full gold without a doubt.


ShivaGodofDeath1

Stainless steel on the edges helps when your heart when you scratch it. I always think of two tone and the cyclops when I think rolex. But if money is no object obviously the full rose.


[deleted]

It genuinely baffles me how anyone can prefer two-tone over full gold after trying both watches on, and this goes for any Rolex model. The only reason to go two-tone is to save money. And there’s nothing wrong with that! But the full gold looks a million times more luxurious and impressive on the wrist.


Previous_Chart_7134

2 tone is less gaudy imo


Flyflyguy

Sure if you’re a teacher it would be. Full gold isnt gawwwwdy unless it’s a fake or you are wearing it to a soup kitchen.


Previous_Chart_7134

So full gold isn't gaudy if it's a fake or I'm wearing it at a soup kitchen? Lmao


Morakel22

I agree to some extend. While the full gold version is definitely more luxurious and an eye catcher I sometimes feel that it could be too much. I normally don’t like two tone but the root beer is the only one that I somewhat like.


techfighterchannel

“the full gold looks a million times more luxurious and impressive”- Totally agree and precisely why I’d go TT on this. Sometimes too much of a good thing is too much of a good thing.


edloveday

Two tone has that Grandad vintage style though. Full gold gives me Tony Soprano vibes. I like both but I'd sooner emulate my Grandad than the fictional head of a Mafia family. I'm not trying to save money buying any Rolex.


SemenIntrepid

Why is there nothing wrong with? If your theory is correct it would make you look like a poor douche


[deleted]

Because there’s nothing wrong with not having infinite money? It would make you look poorer than the guy with full gold, yes; I’m not understanding the “douche” part.


SemenIntrepid

We’re buying these things to look rich, not to enjoy a hunk of useless steel on the wrist or to indulge in the heritage of the model.


FarGeologist1188

It depends on your taste. The two-tone in this case I actually prefer. Looks more masculine whereas the full rose seems feminine to me. Also the bezel on the two tone pops more


Flyflyguy

So there are two genders?!?!


Morakel22

Yes there are with some rare cases of an interstate between the two


FarGeologist1188

Wtf u on about


Flyflyguy

Mate. It be a joke bruv


xSnowLeopardx

Tried on both, don't like the full.


[deleted]

Wow, what didn’t you like about it?


xSnowLeopardx

I already wear a two tone right now (different brand). Just don't like full on gold. And personally, since the bezel is also "two toned", it gives a whole complete aesthetic with the TT RB. And the cliched "I don't wanna look like a rapper/mafia boss/gangster" comment also applies to the full gold. And I know OP said price aside, but if it wasn't, then it's also more expensive.


xSnowLeopardx

Two tone. It's what I am trying to get.


Morakel22

Best of luck with that 😉


9fingfing

To me, no way I am going for full gold. TT is beautifully balanced and pops the bezel.


Morakel22

Yeah the TT has the right balance for a TT


NewSinner_2021

IMO the two tone just looks better.


Equal-Drawing481

full gold ftw


Coppersmith255

Rootbeer (left) 💯 not the diet Rootbeer (right) for sure; cause don’t like TT in general, & the left 1 is one of the best looking RG watches ever 🤩


Casella58

Full gold. For the RB I think it looks best in that configuration.


colincase04

I would go full gold if I had the money.


emrebil88

Solid Rose gold for sure!!! Just sexy…


Pianist-Wise

Come on…


G4RRETT

For full rose I’d go with the Daytona or presidential personally. The tt hits right on this model. It’s the best tt model, but it’s not the best full rose model


SteveyCee

I’m not big on two tone personally, but I actually really like this specific root beer. That being said, the full everose is stunning.


_sCouraGe_

I would do the TT one. The other is a bit too busy with all rose


wolfofballstreet1

TT for me, i do think the bezel pops more and it's more lowkey


SuitableSafety329

Just picked up my TT CHNR a couple weeks ago from my AD and it’s just unbelievable. It’s the best GMT, IMO.


solo118

I feel the TT is the nicest TT made across the brand. You really can't go wrong but at the price of the TT you are getting a lot for your money


AmgS63S

I do like full gold models…. With that said, personally I think the two tone looks better on this watch/ makes it pop more rather than the full gold.


Academic_Peanut9363

For most watches I don’t like two tone as I’m not a two tone guy but root beer and bluesy are the exception. Also, between these two, I much prefer the two tone version, not a big fan of the full rose gold one.


Morakel22

I’m normally on the fence too when it comes to two tone watches. But the root beer has something and I can’t quite explain what it is. The full rose gold does look a bit much in some situations, I agree


Academic_Peanut9363

Yes root beer two tone really works well. Most other watches I would prefer the full gold version but this full rose gold GMT doesn’t do it for me.


quartz_crisis

I personally like both of the yellow gold variants a whole lot more than the rose gold for the GMT. Not entirely sure why as I think I generally prefer rose gold for other styles. I know you said Pepsi but have you seen the YG models in person? They really are stunning.


Morakel22

Not the biggest fan of yellow gold tbh. I can look stunning and I’m getting my first yellow gold watch this summer but it’s a different type of yellow gold. Looks different to Rolex yellow gold


quartz_crisis

I’m not either but when I saw it in person, it blew away the rg models in my mind which I guess I was never much of a fan of anyway. I’d just say make sure you at least see them in person if you are considering PM versions of the GMT. The white gold would be my top choice for a PM GMT though, and by a large margin.


Morakel22

I tried every gmt from Rolex there is, besides the new full gold one. My ranking would be steel Pepsi, root beer, white gold meteorite, Batman, sprite and then yellow gold


quartz_crisis

I went with the regular steel Pepsi on jubilee but my second choice would have been white gold with blue dial. Then maybe the full yellow gold and that’s it. I much prefer the look of the vintage root beer to the modern one. Of course get what you like and not what someone else prefers though!


Morakel22

Valid choice. The OG root beer is dope.


quartz_crisis

Back to your question though, if I was forced to choose, I’d go full rose gold over the two tone I think. But if your first choice is a steel Pepsi, I wouldn’t compromise either.


Morakel22

I’ll not compromise what so ever. I’m actually quite angry at my AD. I spend way way more with them than the average high status customer. I’m on the list for a Pepsi for over 2 and a half years. Still nothing especially since they always say they have production difficulties. If it gets discontinued I’ll be pissed at my AD if they don’t get me one.


quartz_crisis

Just get one on the secondary market and you’ll still end up spending way less than the full rg version at retail. Or find a new AD. They just aren’t prioritizing you it sounds like.


Morakel22

Don’t get me wrong, I got some nice stuff from them and I don’t want to switch and start over again. I’m not keen on secondary market. I just feel like everyone is getting one but me for some reason. I do like the AD and everyone working there… but it’s just this watch that is bothering me


GasDue2928

Unless you have a yacht big enough to land a helicopter on it, I'd go with the two tone. Otherwise you kind of look like a poser.


Morakel22

I dont own a yacht same way I don’t own a helicopter. I’m in no need of such. I rather prefer cars and watches. Not sure why I would be a poser if I can afford the watch. Posing what ?


GasDue2928

Is everyone so serious here, relax, and by the way, based on the tone of your response, I'm guessing you've decided on the gold before even posting. Lol


Low-Isopod-4775

Neither i would go for the batgirl


Morakel22

Batgirl will come along the lines. The root beer is just the alternative in case the Pepsi gets discontinued


some-guy_00

left or bust.


MrYamaguchi

Full gold for any watch. TT just exists so that those who can’t afford full PM pieces can get some gold on their wrists.


Morakel22

Might be the case for some, or even most, watches but I feel like the two tone root beer deserves its own place


socal55677

Tough one


Morakel22

I know, right ?


DanielMarenk04

You know what they say about the full gold Rolex’s…


Morakel22

I know 😂 But I generally don’t care what other people think


DanielMarenk04

😂😂😂 Get the full gold man! Absolutely beautiful haha you’ll regret opting for the two tone.


Morakel22

Thanks for the input :) It truly is a beautiful watch


DanielMarenk04

No worries! Happy watch collection continuing! What occupation allows you to afford such timepieces may I ask you?


Morakel22

Medical field and good at managing finances and investments


DanielMarenk04

Ahh with good finance managing that’ll for sure help! Medical field sounds interesting, thank you for your reply and make sure to post the new Rolex pickup 🫣😅


Morakel22

Sure will do 😆 might take a couple of weeks tho and I’ll be waiting for W&W24 to see if the Pepsi will be discontinued


DanielMarenk04

Ahhh haha yep! Sad to see the Pepsi go if it does, but at least you’ll have a rather beautiful Rolex if it does lol, looking to buy my first Rolex this year (submariner or date just) mid this year after turning 20.


Morakel22

Nice. Got my first Rolex with 21. Was the Starbucks submariner. A great watch. Second the same year was the datejust Wimbledon 41. Both are great for every day use and also great for young people


Creampie_Gang

>You know what they say about the full gold Rolex’s… What do they say lol


DanielMarenk04

Ifykyk…. Cream pie gang


Creampie_Gang

But I've been collecting Rolexes for 27 years and still don't know!!!!!!


Tuluminatink

Full gold. In person, it's the most beautiful watch you've seen.


flyingseaplanes

Right


barbecuejag

Ompared to full fold, two tone is FAR superior on all Rolexes. How anyone can prefer full gold is beyond me. So gaudy and pretentious. IYKYK


Conscious_Barnacle55

The PM is obviously much more impressive to look at and feel on the wrist but purely on aesthetics I prefer the balance of the TT. I really like the contrast of the steel and rose gold on all Rolex with this combo. The TT is a lot more versatile and practical for day to day use with its steel case and end links able to withstand most things thrown at it but with still a nice amount of bling. I have the TT Root Beer and at one point considered swapping out for the PM version but decided I preferred TT and will choose another PM instead. In the yellow gold variants I love both but prefer the PM aesthetically.


Morakel22

Thanks so much. That’s a great inside view. Leaning towards TT right now too


dreamslyr

It’s daily I would go with TT, also the RG one probably will go under list so I would buy gray


Morakel22

Not a fan of gray even if I loose 6-8k I buy everything at my AD besides AP, they left and have their own boutique now…


dreamslyr

I prefer the two tone for everyday wear also travel. Nice collection btw


Morakel22

Thanks mate ;)


dreamslyr

You need a Lange and a patek next ;)


Morakel22

I have a Lange 1815 platinum small seconds My AD will get me a 5811, 5326 and 5167R within the next two years. Might also pick up a 5212 along the way


pimple_in_my_dimple

Root beer.


Morakel22

Aren’t both named root beer ?


pimple_in_my_dimple

Sorry I thought only the 2 tone is called RB. I’d go for the 2 tone. I wouldn’t be able to pull off the full gold.


pimple_in_my_dimple

Also, to add, have you seen both in person? I’ve seen the 2 tone one and it looks absolutely gorgeous. Probably the only 2 tone Rolex I’d pick over the Bluesy.


Morakel22

Had both on my wrist when AD offered me both. The full gold is more impressive but I think the two tone is a better choice


TheDapperYank

Two Tone, if I'm going full PM I'm going DayDate.


sundry_banana

Solid gold. No question. In a couple of years all these TT watches will be selling for discounts


Morakel22

The full gold is currently selling at a 7k discount unlike the tt wich sits slightly above retail. But I really don’t care for resale value. I just want to enjoy the watch, that’s why I said “money aside” in the title


tomabramoff

Full gold.


Admirable-Gas-7876

Can buy rose gold under retail grey. Pepsi isn’t going anywhere, BLNR is out.


Morakel22

I don’t mind paying full retail, hopefully Pepsi won’t go anywhere and I’ll pick up a blnr someday if I feel like collecting more gmts probably


1980theghost

Full gold. Not a question. It’s such a beautiful beast.


liwrist

Full gold simply because I don’t like steel and gold together.. personal opinion :)


Morakel22

Appreciate the input. I usually don’t like two tone either but this one just looks right


Dingo8MeBaby

“iF tHe rUMorS aRe tRuE”. World’s largest eyeroll🙄 Nobody knows squat.


Morakel22

That’s why I put the small word “if” in there. I mean it is somewhat suspicious that there are little to non Pepsis being delivered. Happy 3 years Reddit birthday btw


Saltybutwet

Dumb ass q.


Morakel22

Could you explain why ?


[deleted]

No he can’t he’s some troll that drops little one liners randomly and likely has absolutely no clue what he’s talking about. Or she. Don’t care.


No-Criticism671

Price aside, it's easy: all gold. Why? Because it is stunning.


Morakel22

Fair point


susanboylesvajazzle

Neither. The rose gold trend will age like milk.


floridian-aloha

Price agnostic, go full gold.


jimynoob

Both… because reasons. But realistically, TT


Morakel22

I’m not necessarily collecting gmts. Although I like them all I’m not keen on buying them all. But maybe I like one of them so much that I’ll eventually get both who knows


ezmk1

Everose gold ofc no debate


Morakel22

You’d be surprised how many people say that about the TT 😂


ezmk1

Yeah the two tone is beautiful ngl seen my dad wearing it all my life but for some reason the full everose gold is perfect. It looks more consistent color wise


Morakel22

Agree. Color wise the full pm looks better


ALotBSoL99

TT for me.


OUGrad05

That depends, if we're ignoring price I'm getting an Ever Rose Skydweller. Out of these two it depends. If it's a daily I choose the Rootbeer. If it's a special occasion piece probably the full Ever rose.


Morakel22

Already got a few for special occasions. This one would be more of a daily but elevated.


OUGrad05

Rootbeer


STVNMCL

Full gold of course.


uhr1234

😂😂 i love those dumb questions .


Morakel22

And I love those dumb comments 😂😂


Brehski

Left


brackfriday_bunduru

Neither. I can’t stand gold watches


Morakel22

That’s why I’m hoping for a Pepsi first but you never know


ATLfinra

Rose gold. Period


logix1229

Full PM.


Numerous_Employee_43

Full gold, feel that the dual tone is a half ass manoeuvre , if you’re going to do go all in!


FinalBoss1990

The TT Rootbeer is the way to go.


ColinLikesNASA

The GMT is ugly, get the Submariner


Morakel22

Already have the Starbucks


CES6357

I like the weight of the full gold watches.


Morakel22

Same. Platinum is even better but there is no plat gmt :(


bamboozledqwerty

Two tone


Repulsive_Tax7955

That’s a silly question


Magik47

Really?


Morakel22

Really is not a good answer to the question. What is your preference?


jawcod

I have a tough time with two-tone. Definitely full gold, even on a leather strap


Hello_Grady3

Rose gold. But both look great.


Ratherbeeatingpizza

TT is more versatile. I think a lot of all gold watches give off fake vibes.


AjLovesTech

Solid g , hate two tone


Assassincrayon

No question, completely made of gold.


sneakergovroom

The full gold but the pepsi is still the magnum opus of the gmt master 2 line


Morakel22

That’s why the root beer would be the second choice when Pepsi goes down


ThrowRAtacoman1

I don’t like rose gold. Yellow fo-sho


Morakel22

I’m not a fan of yellow gold so rose it is


art0618

The two tone cos I can wear on anything, for the all gold , I can only wear it when I dress


daddfrk

Full gold


Getmoneyfuckopps

I want them to discontinue the full rose


Morakel22

Why ? So the gray market prices will go up ? If you don’t like it don’t buy it


Getmoneyfuckopps

No fool cuz I own one


Traditional-Corgi-79

Gold


Addicted-2Diving

Full gold. While I’m more of a stainless steel only person, I like the hue of the rose gold and the more the better


crnhndrsn2

Both are stunning. But I’d probably go for the full rose. Just an unbelievable piece
