Today we will be sending you the 2023 edition of "8 recommended rose gold models" of mechanical watches .
The "material" of a watch greatly affects its impression. The "material" of a watch not only affects the impression (appearance) of the watch, but also its scratch resistance and weight, making it an important point when choosing a watch.
So, over the course of five articles, I would like to introduce our recommended "combination model," "white gold model," "rose gold model," "yellow gold model," and "platinum model."
This is the third instalment, and we will be introducing eight carefully selected models in rose gold (including pink gold). Please enjoy until the end.

① [Rolex] "Day Date" "Ref. 128235" Eisenkiesel dial
*Source: https://www.commit-watch.co.jp/buyer/watches/mens/rolex/day-date/day-date-259502/
The first watch we would like to introduce is the "Day-Date" Ref. 128235, which features a beautiful brown Eisenkiesel dial and the shine of 18KERG (Everose gold) .
There are many different dial variations for the Day-Date, but this one, which uses Eisenkiesel, is one that is particularly appealing for its texture that can only be found in natural stones. (Eisenkiesel is a type of quartz that contains a lot of iron, also known as "iron quartz," and is characterized by its reddish color and unique patterned knots.) This is one of the dials that is rarely seen in the Day-Date series, and is a recommended model that exudes adult elegance, with gorgeous diamond indexes that stand out against a subdued color.

● Estimated budget: around 6,500,000 yen
2. A. Lange & Söhne: Datograph, Ref. 403.031
*Source: https://www.commit-watch.co.jp/buyer/watches/mens/a-lange_and_sohne/datograph-237475/
Next, we would like to introduce the Datograph Ref. 403.031, a representative chronograph model from A. Lange & Söhne that was released in 1999.
This model features a beautiful dial design with applied Roman indexes, a tachymeter scale on the outer periphery, and a two-counter chronograph, as well as a movement. The movement "Cal. L951.1", which is said to be the most beautiful of all mechanical watches, can be admired through the see-through back to see its intricate movement. This movement, which can be called a work of art, will fascinate anyone, even if they are not a watch enthusiast. It is worthwhile just to look at it, but the weight and elegance when worn is first-rate.

● Estimated budget: around 18,000,000 yen
③ [Vacheron Constantin] "Overseas Automatic" "Ref. 4500V / 000R-B127"
*Source: https://www.commit-watch.co.jp/buyer/watches/mens/vacheron_constantin/overseas-self-winding-311130/
Next, we would like to introduce the popular luxury sports model "Ref. 4500V/000R-B127", which was announced in 2016 as the third generation "Overseas".
Although the case diameter is 41mm, it has a strong presence, but the 18KPG (pink gold) and sunburst silver dial give it a soft impression. It is equipped with an "interchangeable system" that allows you to change the strap with one touch without using tools, so it is easy to change it according to the usage scene and season. In fact, around 2022, the strap that comes with the "Overseas" was changed from an alligator belt to a grained calf belt. If you prefer a luxurious impression, we recommend the alligator belt, and if you want a casual look, we recommend the calf belt.

④ [Audemars Piguet] "Royal Oak" "Ref. 15450OR.OO.1256OR.01"
*Source: https://www.commit-watch.co.jp/buyer/watches/mens/audemars_piguet/royal-oak/royal-oak-selfwinding-315017/
Next up, we'd like to introduce the 37mm diameter "Ref. 15450OR.OO.1256OR.01" from Audemars Piguet's iconic watch, the Royal Oak.
This model exudes a sense of luxury with its combination of 18KPG (pink gold) case and bracelet and gray dial. It is equipped with the in-house automatic movement "Cal.3120" and boasts a power reserve of approximately 60 hours. Although it is priced at a secondary market price that makes it difficult to get your hands on it, it has a less premium feel than the SS (stainless steel) model, so why not try picking it up and experiencing its beauty for yourself?

⑤ [Rolex] "Daytona" "Ref. 116505" Black dial
*Source: https://www.commit-watch.co.jp/buyer/watches/mens/rolex/daytona/daytona-286742/
Next up, we'd like to introduce the Daytona "Ref. 116505" released in 2009, which features an 18KERG (Everose gold) case and bracelet with an attractive contrast of black and pink dial .
This model will be discontinued in 2023, and unlike the new "Ref.126505" which has pink subdials, the black scale on the inner circumference of the subdial gives it a more refined look. Also, while the "Ref.126505" has a sunburst black dial, the "Ref.116505" has a matte black dial, so this is a point where preferences differ. The popular "Daytona" comes in a variety of design patterns, but if you want something with just the right amount of glamour, why not consider this as one of your options?

⑥ [Patek Philippe] "Aquanaut" "Ref. 5167R-001"
*Source: https://www.commit-watch.co.jp/buyer/watches/mens/patek_philippe/aquanaut/aquanaut-321657/
Next up we will introduce the Ref. 5167R-001 from the Aquanaut series, which is one of the most popular and well-known Patek Philippe models and was released at Baselworld in 2009.
This watch combines a glossy brown embossed dial, an 18KRG (rose gold) case, and a brown tropical band, giving it a sporty yet luxurious finish. The Aquanaut line-up includes models with a variety of functions, but the three-hand model with only a date display is very popular because it is simple and timeless. It has a less premium feel than the SS (stainless steel) model, so why not try it out as a watch to elegantly decorate your wrist in the summer?

⑦【Audemars Piguet】 "Royal Oak Jumbo Extra-Thin" "Ref.15202OR.OO.1240OR.01"
*Source: https://www.commit-watch.co.jp/buyer/watches/mens/audemars_piguet/royal-oak/royal-oak-jumbo-extra-thin-278987/
Next up, we'd like to introduce the Royal Oak Jumbo Extra-Thin (Ref. 15202OR.OO.1240OR.01), which was released in 2014 and is made of 18KPG (pink gold) .
This watch is equipped with the thin automatic movement "Cal.2121" in the same 39mm case as when it was released in 1972. Around 40mm diameter is the modern standard, but at the time of its release, small watches were the norm, so the 39mm case was very large and was given the nickname "Jumbo". Despite being a reproduction model, it has a modern design that does not feel old, and it can be said to be a flawless and complete watch. It is a recommended watch that represents [Audemars Piguet], combining sportiness and elegance .

8. Patek Philippe: Perpetual Calendar Split Second Chronograph, Ref. 5204/1R-001 "
*Source: https://www.commit-watch.co.jp/buyer/watches/mens/patek_philippe/patek-philippe-other/perpetual-calendar-283020/
The last watch we would like to introduce is the Perpetual Calendar Split Second Chronograph "Ref. 5204/1R-001" with an 18KRG (rose gold) case and bracelet, which was released in 2017 .
The slightly glossy ebony black sunburst dial exudes sexiness, and while most of Patek Philippe's complication and grand complication models are made with alligator straps, this is a rare bracelet watch. Its comfort on the wrist is highly acclaimed. Another notable feature is the movement that can be viewed through the see-through back, and the Cal. CH 29-535 PS Q, which was developed and manufactured entirely in-house, allows you to experience the brand's technical capabilities. Not only is it scarce, but it will be discontinued in 2022, so there is a possibility that it will become even more popular in the future.
