Gold?

So what is everyone's preference for the gold hues? WG, Everrose or YG? Mine is WG, everrose and finally YG. I suspect the majority would be YG, everrose, and then WG? Just curious...thanks.

Whatever gold you like - buy preowned. Don't take the price beating buying BNIB. Just MO.

Everrose, pink, whatever they want to call PINK gold. I like it, it's different.

YG (DDII/DJ/GMTIIC) & WG (SubC, Daytona) equal first, third = Everose.

Everose

I have 2 Rose gold watches. An IWC Pilot Chrono, and a JLC Master Grographic.

I think the Everose Daytona looks awesome, however if I were to get a Day Date it might have to be in YG, but then again who knows.

Wg and rose gold, depending on what I'm wearing. If platinum is thrown into the mix, I'll take it.. Not a big fan of yg.

I typically prefer WG, but if I ever decide to buy a Daytona, the Everose is just too compelling for me to ignore.

White gold, then yellow gold.

For white gold watches the only manufacture to own is Rolex as they have their own foundry and mix Palladium to get the white gold. No problems with bleed through as with other manufactures.
