Apple Watch Series 4 Gold more Pink than Gold?

I purchased the new series 4 aluminium gold 44mm watch and when it arrived it is more pink than gold. Took a picture of it side by side to previous gen and its like night and day. It even looks different to the pictures on the apple site! called apple and they said they couldn't do anything about it! any one else having the same issue? surely this is against Australian Consumer Protection Law as it is not as described or advertised ? If i new this i wouldn't of spent $800 on it!

Apple Watch Series 4, iOS 12

Because it was purchased on contact through Vodafone apple wont take it back and Vodafone wont either and told me to take it to apple haha so I’m screwed. Such a difference between the current and previous

Check your local consumer law, and also the law relating to online or phone purchases. (Here in UK we have "distance selling" regulations which provide a statutory return period). It is likely your real rights are against the seller (Voda) rather than manufacturer (Apple). If the product is not as described it could be a simple breach of contract, or you might have a statutory right to reject it. You need local advice on your local laws, but also expect to need a new cellular provider if you end up in the courts to enforce your rights.

did you compare the Series 4 with Series 3? or Series 2? I bought the Series 3 with the Gold of that gen, and it turns out to be more pink. My Series 2 is also Gold, and that well is Champaign Gold. Apple had Rose Gold for Series 2.


But after about a year, the Series 3 Blush Gold gradually faded, and the pink is no longer that prominent or that i can see.


This year i went with the Series 4 Space Grey, back to my first Series 0 Apple Watch colour.
