Icon5 Will this bracelet match a pink gold watch

A friend of mine has a vintage 18k pink gold Rolex Datejust and he is looking into buying a bracelet for his watch. He has come across one that is being auctioned now.

http://www.ebay.com/itm/140992523284...84.m1423.l2649

However the seller points out the gold color of the bracelet is neither yellow nor pink. Do you think the bracelet that is being offered now, will match the case of my friend's pink gold Datejust, since from the pictures it is difficult to tell?

I think for a 40 year-old, it is really in top condition. Probably, it has not been used much. Unfortunately, its color does not match my friend's pink gold Datejust.

Not to mention how odd it would look.

Indeed the color will also be different. The way it is going now, the bracelet is going to be more expensive than the watch.
