I tend to gravitate towards simple, time only dials. Very few complicated dials are compelling to me, but this one is an exception. And I normally opt for white metals, but for something so traditional and exquisite, I would choose rose or yellow gold.
I saw this Breguet tourbillion at the Geneva airport last spring and I was mesmerized. I think I prefer the beauty and legibility of the guilloche rather than the skeleton. But the level of detail and workmanship that Breguet puts into these little jewels is stellar.
Breguet Tourbillon Messidor 5335 Rose Gold.
I posted a couple of months ago some pictures of the Tourbillon Messidor in white gold, www.watchprosite.com I just could see the rose gold version in Paris. The white gold is my favorite, I love its " monochromatic " look, with only a few shaded ...
I would like to see the white gold (or better yet platinum) with yellow gold for contrast...
...I don't normally go for difficult to read dials, but I would make an exception here : )
Usually I prefer white metal, but in this case I would actually go for the rose gold.
Gives some warmth as contrast to the movement. But both are beautiful!
Hmm...
I thought my favorite was the rose gold. But seeing your photo of the white gold with a rose gold tourbillon cage... I'm actually more moved by the white gold example oddly. Both beautiful watches.
What a display of finishing mastery!
I am partial to the white gold as I prefer white metals, but the rose gold is good too, what a grail!
This watch has everything I hate... A dial side tourbillion, a tourbillion, a skeletonized movement...
But in spite of all of that, I love this watch. The heart wants what the heart wants, I suppose, and only Breguet could pull off a watch like this. For me, the rose gold would be my choice. Go all out at this point I say!

A sublime tourbillon from Breguet.
For this watch and its particular style I would go with the rose gold version. Best, Gerard
