A quick research on the internet revealed that Patek has ceased plating with rhodium ground 2007
I did not catch that info at the time.
Thank you for the Info.
definitely rose gold
warmer and makes the watch more elegant in my opinion. White gold is too cold for this watch.

so it’s probably more practical to get the rose gold.
I would think it is to the contrary
Lange does not plate WG with rhodium, where Patek does

I tend tl say that AD is wrong

Apart from that any model is a winner!
Which one suits your outfits better?
In my early collecting days, I bought both white metals (SS, WG & PT) and colored metals (YG & RG). Over time, I realized that I wore white metals much more, not because I didn't like the RG or YG, but mainly because they did not match my outfits ...
Love love love this watch
I would go for RG. The warmth of RG really brings out the retro/historic look of the 1815.
It is just an aesthetic choice... so it is very difficult to help you...
I prefer the WG version here. Fx
I will chip in
I had to make the same decision with my 1815 Up / Down, so perhaps I can help. I find the rose gold that A.L&S use particularly attractive, and I think it works really well with the 1815 line. So I was pretty sure I was going to get the rose gold, but the...
Thank you everyone !
Clearly contentious and lots of valuable comments. I mainly wear dark colour suits (blues and greys) so I can see WG matching my outfits but I am sure I will enjoy this no matter what colour I get !rp
