I would say you have to try them on. Rose gold does not look good against my skin but yg is fantastic. It's all about your skin tone!

I'm usually a rose gold guy, but in this particular configuration I have to go yellow

So I can be of help here bc I bought mine a week ago BUT your taste is the only one that matters! I had my pick of the 3- simply put, the RG didn’t do it for me at all! RG is a bit on the feminine side to me. WG is a winner but a little sportier than I wanted. The YG!!! I knew the second I put it on. It’s the perfect combo of dress and sport! It’s very masculine and very handsome and I absolutely love it! A few of my buddies tried to steer me to the WG but the YG just knocked my breath. Buy what knocks YOUR breath out, it’s that simple...

YG for sure. The contrast of the black and yellow is stunning in person out in the sun.

My favorite is the WG personally, but the RG comes 2nd. I'm just not a YG fan.

This "Chocotona" certainly looks nice. But I've found out that it is the most counterfeited model of all Daytona models. I've personally seen some fake Chocotonas. So, I would avoid this particular model at all costs.

I like the YG in this combination...feel like it has a bit of a vintage spirit with the benefit of being a modern Daytona.

I'm considering an Oysterflex Daytona and am really torn between the rose gold and the white gold. I'm not a fan of the yellow gold.

I'd choose WG. It looks like 6263 "Big Red", which is the coolest vintage Daytona.
Avoid RG Chocotona, as it is often counterfeited.



Wei Koh mentions the similarity between WG 116519LN and 6263 Big Red:
