Rose gold full bracelet watches

Been thinking about getting a full gold bracelet watch, just simple 3 hander. Of course I'm missing out on the top tier brands like AP, VC, PP etc. What options would you guys recommend?

There's GP Loreato, Chopard Alpine Eagle, Parmigiani Tonda PF. Anything else I should consider?

So much unobtanium out there....

Parmigiani of the three mentioned.

Breguet has beautiful dress bracelets in rose gold and the marine bracelet in rose gold is excellent.

Check out the Bulgari Octo Finissimo rose gold. Wow, stunning finish to the gold.

Tonda PF I’ve tried in steel, tremendous balance and refinement. A little disappointed the dial and bezel aren’t more hand made but the result is basically flawless. The dial couldn’t really be done by hand guidance that small and the platinum bezel might not suit the hand knurled approach. I really liked the watch and their rose gold has a nice hue.

Cartier does a rose gold bracelet for the Santos as well. Real stunner in person, and has a quick-change strap feature so you can swap the bracelet w/ a strap.

Tried on an Omega Aqua Terra Sedna gold small seconds with Blue dial. Absolutely stunning watch in the flesh.

I have this in two tone. My girlfriend tells me she loves all my watches i think to humor me but my AT made her jaw hit the floor and i could tell it was genuine. So yeah i think when a watch can blow the mind of someone who couldnt care less about watches it says something!

You may consider the Breguet Marine 5517 too. I have placed an order for the titanium blue dial recently, but it doesn't have the gorgeous hand-guilloché finishing this rose gold version has.

The Chopard Alpine Eagle is a very nice watch but the 36mm on this piece wears very small, it's targeted for females.

I'd love for the Parmigiani to have a center seconds hand.

Very plain dial, this Parmigiani.
Rose speedmaster is cool, Cartier as mentioned, Bulgari Octo FInissimo is nice as well if your wrists can handle it.

Thanks for the suggestion. I like the santos too but somehow I feel the santos looks much better in steel. As for the Parmigiani the dial is too boring and with no seconds hand it's not my preference.

I also tried a sedna gold speedmaster which is actually cheaper than some of the options. So far the chopard seems to be the best looking option

I’d be curious to hear about other gold bracelet watches as well. Vacheron has some nice ones, Omega has a big selection to choose from. I’d like to hear some white gold options too.
