Which Rainbow Day Date?
So I am thinking about doing something I would have previously never considered -- picking up a Rainbow Day Date.
This, of course, feels like an indulgence. Perhaps too much haha. Question is -- which metal would you do? White, yellow, or rose gold? Right now I'm thinking fluted bezel and plain bracelet though I have been tempted by the fluted bezel and pave bracelet combo... |

I love the White Gold with pave dial. However, I also kinda agree with the "hold off" approach here as I don't know if this is a passing fancy, or something I'd really love to add.
I honestly do not know how hard these are to get. In terms of the White Gold, I don't think I've ever seen one up for sale that I know is genuine. I am guessing these are models that need to be requested and possibly it's a model that an AD has to proactively request as opposed to hoping one shows up one day? I'd be curious if anybody has any real knowledge of the availability of these.

I thought rose til I tried yellow. From flashiest to least: Yellow > Rose > White Can’t go wrong. |

My instinct is yellow, but I think rose is reasonable too. White seems like a waste to me.

Gold is yellow, so that is my choice. Never liked WG or RG.

Which Rainbow Day Date?
Fun!!
I’d prob do this in white. But it’d be an impulsive purchase for me, it would have to be sitting there and see it, try it on, then buy it. So the odds of anyone having more than one of these is very low. So im reality it would just be whichever one was there at the right time for me to buy it and I would be equally happy with any metal on this. Would be fun to put on every once in a while that’s for sure!!!! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

I’m totally not into diamonds on a watch for me but Rolex does a great job on those so any metal would do nicely!
