Rolex 1908

Hello everyone,
During a visit to Rolex, I came across the 1908 range.
What do you think of it?
I'm used to professional watches, but I think it's also nice to wear classic watches.
On the other hand, I'm very hesitant about color combinations. I'm interested in yellow gold because it's coming back into fashion, but white or black dials... or white gold???

Besides, I can't explain the price difference between yellow gold and white gold....

Thank you and happy holidays.

I’m only guessing but it could be a trending issue in its own foundry.

Rolex would not use less costly copper in their WG alloy as it does for YG and RG. The proportion of more costly platinum and palladium in WG would yield a more expensive 18 ct gold. So they charge more.
