Yellow Gold vs Rose Gold

[jibby23]

At least imo the everose is more subdued, RG maybe diff but not sure. At least on my wrist YG is way flashier tho

[QUOTE=KatGirl;13358512]That would be a bad marketing ploy, as they also sell a lot of yellow gold. I haven’t heard of any problems with the Rolex 18 k yellow gold changing color.

I agree 100% and was surprised that Rolex marketed it that way. There is no problem with YG, that is just the normal aging process of any YG.

In 2005, Rolex introduced Everose, their proprietary blend of 18-karat pink gold that combines pure gold, copper, and a small amount of platinum to create a unique rose gold alloy that will never lose its warm red color. The platinum locks in the copper’s natural pink tint, which allows the metal to retain its original color. Even after prolonged exposure to environmental factors that would otherwise diminish its warm, rose-colored tint the color holds true.

I have a YG DD40 and went with yellow as I have fair skin and just thought it looked better on me.

Agree here.....Fair skin here....I have wanted to love Rose G, but it just doesn't look great on me. But, yellow looks amazing...IMHO.

Yellow gold flashier and much nicer.

YG look best on dark skin.

While I agree with the sentiment the opposite is true for me, when I wear my YGs I am much more conservative and aware than when I wear my SSs, also comes with living in London these days I guess.

I think YG is more easily recognized by most as the color of gold. RG seems a bit more subtle, but it might just be that there seem to be far more YG on bracelet watches while RG has historically been the domain of dress watches on straps.

I prefer YG. But not everyone can pull off a gold piece (whether YG or RG).
