If you were me!
Which rose gold would you pick?
44mm Rose Gold Novelty http://www.audemarspiguet.com/en/wat...O.OO.A002CA.01 OR 39mm Rose Gold ROC with the grey slate paul newman style dial with leather strap (full on gold with bracelet is too blingy for my taste) http://www.audemarspiguet.com/en/wat...R.OO.D098CR.02 I've always liked the grey slate dial for some reason especially if you see it in person. A timeless classic in my point of view. The 44mm is v nice too but I think I will just find it too bling and big after my initial hype. I'm also in my 30's. Let's say almost mid 30's... I can def pull off both the 44 and the 39 as I got pretty decent size wrist. So if you were me: go young and trendy with the 44mm or a timeless classic down the road with the 39mm ROC with grey slate Paul Newman style dial? Getting both is outta my budget! ![]() Please base your advice on the 2 mentioned models. Thanks in advance! |

Both are great. the 44mm rose gold novelty is good and more trendy, but i think the ROC is more classic and elegant.
classic = roc trendy + fashion = novelty |

Go for the 44mm RG. Young and trendy for your age as you are only young once, wear this and really stand out from the crowd. Also the RG44 will probably be phased out after the current cycle is completed making it more collectible. There will always be an ROC around to buy at a later stage in life.

I have the ROC RG and now Im very interested in the RG Novelty but I have decided I cannot sell the ROC, it is just too beautiful - theres nothing like a gold AP bezel with all gold pushers, so altho it will take a while longer to get the Novelty I will wait. So my advice is def to eventually get both and maybe the Novelty first as you have a ROC.

If I have your collection, I'll go with 44RG.
As Neil mentioned, you already have a ROC, and I believe 44RG could bring more versatile to your collection |

44 without a doubt. But how does it fit your wrist?

I really like both but I would go with the 39mm ROC. I love that grey dial/RG combo. It is also more classic.
