Hi guys! I just purchased the new offshore in 43 mm in Rose Gold. Is this a better buy than the Black Ceramic Yellow Gold and Black Ceramic End of Days 2 30 years anniversary as they are all the same price?

I am also planning to buy additional straps. What colors do you guys suggest that are good with the Rose Gold?

AP rose gold hits differently it may not be a limited edition like the black ceramic but AP offshore rose Gold on rubber is their premium offering despite being a regular variant. Well done on that being your first watch and now you can take your time to plan what you want next to sit in your AP collection.

I prefer the rose gold over the black ceramic yellow myself too.

I have the RG and plan on adding one of the ceramic variants.

They are all nice

Which of the above ceramic variants do you think complements the RG better? I was thinking the EOD is more so, but I may be biased.

I struggle a little with the 26420CE yellow gold. On one hand, if they had used rose gold, I feel like it would be a super hot watch with high demand. I mean, it is basically the perfect ceramic and gold Offshore I had been hoping they would make.

I am not 100% sure how I feel about the minute track (versus doing it in black, which might of been too stark). I definitely want to see it in person.

Second, would I have to change my entire wardrobe to where it as a daily? I am very blue, tan, brown, and green. The other thing....I am not sure it would look good with any strap color other then black.

I would get the RG Offshore first because I think it is more versatile in terms of color scheme (versus the black ceramics). I just picked up the black dial steel one and think that will be very versatile as well. The new ones look great but I don't know that in practice they'd be worn as frequently.

I am thinking the white rubber strap will also look good because of the pearl white chronos inside the dial
