The Rolex 1908 Survey Which Gold

[hayday]

My real answer would be rose gold, but since that's not an option, yellow gold for me, even though I'm not usually a fan of it. I think for this type of watch, white gold looks sort of washed out. It's why I got the rose gold when I had my Vacheron Patrimony (which I still miss sometimes).

Rose gold is the correct answer.

There are two people who answered white gold. I'm pretty sure one is Raza, but not the other. I like to hear comments on the white gold choice.

I instictively voted white gold because I don't like, with a capital HATE, yellow gold. After seeing the photos, I immediatley regretted answering so quickly. The yellow gold is just so damn pretty, and the yellow gold with that brown leather strap is *chef's kiss." I also think it is closer to what you've said you want- class.

If it was my money, I'd get it in white gold and in platinum if I hade an extra $30,000 doing nothing.

Make that three, it's understated and looks way classier imo. It makes a statement by not making one, if that makes sense, less is more.

Platinum on these for some reason is $5300 over white gold at retail prices. I considered this but I'm being told most AD have not received a Platinum watch yet, and back orders have these with a three year wait. Secondary markets have Platinum at double or more of retail. the other two watches available in platinum (President and Daytona) are north of $66k.so a $31.2K Platinum watch is a a deal for a platinum Rolex.

Rose gold is the correct answer.

I’m trying to imagine this in rose gold, and for some reason it doesn’t seem to work for me. Usually I’m all over Rose gold on watches, but this one I’d have to hold to make that decision if it was even available.

I’m getting the feeling that all three colors are on back order status for multiple years. I’ll wait. Wait to hear back from the AD to confirm this.
