The Rolex Podium

Took this comparison photo earlier and forgot to upload it, so here we go as I think it’s quite interesting and a bit of fun.

The podium of Gold, ‘Silver’ and ‘Bronze’ from the yellow gold, rose gold and stainless steel in addition to the president, oyster and jubilee bracelets comparison.

What’s your favourite bracelet and metal?

For me the winner has got to be the yellow gold president, but I am also a huge fan of the jubilee bracelet.

Oh man, I can't really choose a favorite here, but I gotta say I absolutely love this post! Those podium colors are just so crisp in the last picture.

Thanks for sharing.

Really useful to compare and contrast yellow vs. rose gold. Well done Sir.

I’ve always been a Stainless Steel guy, preferring “tool watches” to dress watches. Still my favorite, especially in a GMT Master.

I have 2 of your 3. I would say the steel jubille is surprisingly light and comfortable. So that be my favorite and has been my daily beater. The DD40 bracelet is also comfortable But I find that i wear it more carefully as to minimize scratches.

For me. I am really partial to rose gold. Really a great bracelet and case color. The good news is you can wear them all.
