Which Rose Gold Oysterflex.

I may have the opportunity to get my hands on a Rose Gold Oysterflex Daytona from an AD.
At this point I would take either of these 3 but I’m curious as to what the general opinion is, 1, 2 or 3.

Cannot go wrong with either. It would be 2, 1, 3 for me. Pre-congrats :)

3 would be my choice. A friend of mine has it and those RG sub dials pop!

It would be between 2 and 3 for me. Based on pictures, I’d say 2. But I saw 3 in person and it was a stunner.

Love all 3 but to me different personalities.
1) sexy/suave
2) beautiful
3) badass

3, 1, 2, i like the reverse panda look on the RG OF more (3), than the regular panda (2), and it just has a sportier/more masculine vibe... the chocolate dial i feel is popular but idk, just don't really feel it... subdials get lost, which make a chronograph imo

I would say 3, then 2, then 1 in that order.

I just don't like the brown with the rose gold. And the champagne dial is nice enough but doesn't really pop.

Out of those 3 - 3, 2, 1 as black is more versatile but 2 is close as sundust pops in light better.

But if you can get any dial the right answer is first meteorite and second diamond baguette.

All great. I prefer the black dial on bracelet so I would probably also rank them 2,1,3. Really can’t go wrong either way with those though.

The chocolate dial is the easy winner. The other two are boring to me but to each his own.
Nothing quite like a Rolex everose chocolate combo watch!

Before trying any of them on I would have said 3,1,2.

I haven't tried the chocolate dial but tried #3 and felt it was a bit too much black. Dare I say it had a bit of a plastic toy vibe.

I then tried #2 and was pleasantly suprised. The contrasting dial was really nice in real life.

I have tried on a RG chocolate day date and if it's the same sunburst dial on the Daytona (not sure it is) then I would go with that.

Short answer: 1,2,3

Exactly this, in real life the subdials contrast is nowhere near as on the renders. I had this dial for a while and the first second I held it at the AD I immediately noticed this. Some geat real life pictures on line , but under anything but just the perfect the contrasting subdials fade in the chocolate. Still a gorgeous dial obviously , but it does look different on the wrist for sure…

Bought my wife no.2 and it is stunning. I slightly prefer no.3 as it suits my style s bit more, but I’d be happy with either of those two.

Middle for absolute sure, the dial complements the case and the sub dials complement the bezel, and blend in with the oyster flex better

The other configurations look too busy

2. It’s the closest thing to the panda style that I prefer. But ignore all the noise and choose the one that suits your personality, wrist and lifestyle best. Which one will please you the most when you reach for it and put it on your wrist? Which one speaks to only you? I can guarantee you that 99 percent of people won’t even notice it, so don’t buy it for them.
