I've already decided on the model, ladies size, steel and rose gold jubilee bracelet with 12 diamonds on the dial. My problem is I can't decide on the dial colour. SO thinks I should go r white as its classic and shows off the diamonds better. But I'm leaning more towards a rose-gold colored dial.

He thinks rose-gold is too matchy with the bracelet and the diamonds don't pop out. But I'm thinking white dial looks like any other watches.

Would appreciate any thoughts! TIA!

Do you mean the pink dial? It's not the same as rose gold. I don't think there is a "rose gold" dial. As Swanky says, go try them on.

Pink is quite a definite color choice, so you have to think if you want a color more than a neutral. Have you considered the beautiful mother of pearl dials? The Rolex white dial is not really like other white dials. It's clear and fresh and beautiful, and made of enamel so it has a nice bounce of light to it (not paint). That was my choice.:smile1:

I think the rose - gold dial is commonly known as the pink champagne but here my AD calls it rose-gold.

I've tried both and thought that the pink colour looks warmer and more elegant on me. The white one looks a bit stark naked on me as I'm rather tanned.

Unfortunately, I can't afford the MOP dial, it's out of my budget. And also, given that I'm quite rough, I'm terrified that it will crack if I knock against something.

It's gonna be my first and only Rolex so I need to be sure. I'll go try them again and see if I can post some pics.

I'm not usually a fan of their pink dials, but the pink floral is really stunning!

If you like the pink dial, you owe it to yourself to check out the pink floral dial. Its really beautiful. Good luck with whatever you choose.

The diamonds would obviously look better on a pink dial...but the choice is yours, the white dial would also look great with the RG/SS combo. Have you already tried both?

I recently bought the same watch although mine is YG and not RG. It took me so long to decide between the champagne dial and the white dial. In the end, I went for the white one and I'm so glad I did. It really is beautiful and the diamonds 'pop' so much more. I personally would go with white.
