No. There are regular gold colors but no Rose gold.

Actually, there is a rose gold and I feel very much cheated that apple did this. It's a little hard to tell from the pictures but I bought the Gold Aluminum apple watch series 3. It came in the mail today and I can confirm it is the typical apple rose gold color. It matches the color of my rose gold 6s perfectly. I'm not sure why they advertise it as gold but it is what it is.

Describing colours is a very subjective matter.


The current gold-coloured Apple Watch Series 3 is not the same colour as previous Rose Gold or Gold aluminium cases.


Viewing colours on the screens of devices can result in them looking different than they do when viewed in person.


With that in mind, here is a direct, screen-based comparison of the previous Rose Gold and Gold colours with the current Gold colour:

Anyone who is concerned about the colour may, before buying, find it most helpful to view the Apple Watch at an Apple Retail Store or Apple Authorised Reseller. In the US, for example:

The Gold Series 3 Apple Watch is NOT the typical rose gold. It is somewhere between the previous gold and rose gold tones. I think the color on the series 3 is lovely. I have very light skin and I think it looks great with my skin tone. I have kept the pink sand band on it and I think it’s neutral enough to go with everything. Although I tend to wear a lot of gray and navy.

Hi. I have to say that I watched the Watch announcement keynote video and noticed for a nano-second that he said "new" gold when introducing colors, but then never thought of it again. I was surprised also when I received my 3 yesterday that it was definitely a different/darker shade than my original gold sport was. But it's definitely not as "Rose" gold as the original aluminum which was more bubble gum-ish.

I have several different bands, in color and material, and each one brings out a different "tone" in this new gold case. The pink bands it comes with definitely bring a pink tint but my original antique white band that came with my original watch brings out an almost copper tint (I think it's very unique). Then I have a new rose red sport and the saddle brown leather and they brink out more gold and the milanese loop makes a definite 2 tone metal look.

Color is definitely a matter of personal choice and opinion, I was surprised and unsure at first but the more I wear it and see the difference the bands make the more unique it seems to me.

I looked at the site. It said gold, not rose gold. I was a bit suspicious since rose gold was no longer an option and it looked kind of pink. I went to a chat session with Apple and asked if it was gold, not rose gold because I hate pink and they assured me it was not rose gold. I got the watch and it was that wretched pink. I returned it and went back to the watch 2.
