The yellow gold is a bit too flashy for me but if you want to show you've got gold then that's the way to go. It also has the sunburst dial which I prefer. I went with the 116613lb several years ago to get the best of both worlds. If they has 116610lb sunburst that would be the way to go

I know! Don't provoke. Rofl. I'm still thinking about it even though I just got the 116618lb.

If blue dial is a must- white gold. Let the blue speak .
If yellow gold- then black dial.
Let the yellow gold shine without the blue dial competing with it.
As ever, hard to make a bad choice with these pieces- enjoy!

For me gold has to be yellow.
I can’t see the point of white gold and although not in question here but I must say rose gold looks awful, why would anyone want a copper looking watch in my opinion
