iabounty 8 Posted May 24, 2009 Is it just me, or was 'rose gold' once called 'copper'? Not a big fan of the rose gold (also called pink gold or brown gold my young female local jeweler tells me) Yellow gold for me, but I'm just an old fashioned kind of guy. Rose gold is in style now and I'm not.......... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rose gold is in style now and I'm not.......... Joey, it's just you. My opinion - some watches looks great in yellow gold only (Rolex, for example... I bought oversized DayDate, it is available in RG only, and... honestly, I don't like it too much), and some great in RG only. I have YG gen. Patek, and 2 Patek replicas in RG, and reps looks much, much better. IA, this Chopard is available in SS with white and black dials. Even with SS bracelet. Do you "do" that jewelry girl?

I bought a BRE from Lawrence that was rose gold. It was described as gold on his site. I liked the watch but wasn't crazy about the rose gold color. I sent it back to him because one of the tiny day or date hands fell off 1 day after I got it. I would still have it otherwise but would not be wearing it. Rose gold looks pink IMHO and yes I "do" go see that jewelry girl, she has a great personality... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

greg_r 84 Posted May 25, 2009 Nice lookin' watch, Luthier. Not quite my taste (it's one I'd admire in the watchbox, but would probably never wear), but the power reserve is certainly different! I like rose gold too (@Joey: whilst the colour may be fairly similar to copper at least rose gold doesn't turn your wrist green!) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NFleischer 4,355 Posted May 25, 2009 (edited) i actually like the rubber strap. never had any problems with it. does the PR work- must be 21J huh? Edited May 25, 2009 by NFleischer Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Luthier 1 Posted May 25, 2009 i actually like the rubber strap. never had any problems with it.does the PR work- must be 21J huh? Yes, it's working PR, and No, it's not 21j, it's 23J. Maybe it is 21j, with some modification for PR, so, they added a few stones. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
