Hey guys, I am looking to add a gold AP to the collection, blue dial.

I have always loved the rose gold version but the yellow gold on blue combo is gorgeous.

What do you guys think? The hunt for a yellow is going to be a lot harder also..

WatchEater666 · 23 October 2020, 01:06 AM

The rose gold looks really really cool in person.

dardeca · 23 October 2020, 01:16 AM

Rose gold 100%. Most will tell you the blue dial looks best, but I actually prefer the brown dial...it's amazing IRL.

rolexfanforlife · 23 October 2020, 01:47 AM

I would go rose gold. But either way, nice choice!

edo · 23 October 2020, 03:31 AM

AP have fabulous rose gold shade that goes well with their tone of blue dial... much better than yellow gold...

I love YGs with YG dials and eclectic Yves Klein blue...

It's a perpetual not a chrono but nice pics to see colors side by side...

Famz_01 · 23 October 2020, 02:05 PM

Rose 100 percent

le_baron · 23 October 2020, 02:13 PM

Haven't seen them in person but from Edo's picture I prefer the yellow gold with blue dial over the rose gold with blue dial.

AK797 · 23 October 2020, 11:51 PM

I prefer RG, esp as AP's is not too coppery.

Vivalas · 24 October 2020, 01:00 AM

RG is amazing, I’d go that way.

kd845 · 25 October 2020, 01:02 AM

Rose Gold - is perfect for the office and formal occasions.

Yellow Gold - when you want to "flex" , like the young kids say these days .....

Benzsiam · 26 October 2020, 08:19 PM

Nowadays I think Rose Gold is getting more popular than Yellow Gold.

Black/Chocolate dial would looks better with Rose Gold.

Blue dial can go with either one.

YG is the classic and RG is what is hot. If you have the skin tone to match the RG, I do not, it can be stunning. If you are going to be complete you will need matching RG accessories and that is a more difficult task. Historically RG in the secondary market is a more difficult sale but for an AP maybe not. I would go YG.

Rose for me

Both are really nice. I’d probably go rose but yellow is just as nice.

I'd go yellow, it really pops. Plus you are less likely to see YG RO than RG.

sgwatchguy · 26 October 2020, 11:06 PM

Both. Either.
AP RG has the edge for me.

nosignalbmwdriver · 28 October 2020, 12:30 AM

Yellow hands down!!!

uscmatt99 · 28 October 2020, 01:07 AM

I love yellow gold with the blue dial!

ap1 · 28 October 2020, 02:21 AM

Rg

The Dumb One · 28 October 2020, 05:50 AM

Is either the YG or RG Chronometer Boutique Exclusive,or can any AD order?

I obtained the SS RO Chronometer Blue dial from my non boutique AD,but YG they are not sure is obtainable. And no Boutique in country.

myporsche · 28 October 2020, 08:33 AM

I have tried on both. APs RG is lovely, I think my favorite and I'm not a big RG fan. Their yellow gold is bright, yellow, 70s style if that make sense. It's nice and different, it's more rare and getting harder to find if that matters. I still liked it but would lean more towards the RG and rather get a Rolex YG.
