Finishes, materials and color of your Apple Watch
With the naked eye, it is possible to associate your watch with a color group:
- silver
- dark grey/black/graphite/minuit
- gold/pink
- blue
- red
- green
To obtain the exact shade and finish, please refer to the instructions on the back of your Apple Watch.
Here are the interesting sections:
- The Series number
- The finish

From these 2 pieces of information and the color group, you can define the exact color.
For example, if your watch is in the Gold/Rose Gold group and it is a Series 2, you will be able to confirm whether it is the Aluminum Gold or Rose Gold model.
On the other hand, if your watch is in the Gold/Rose Gold group and it is a Series 3, it is definitely the Aluminum Gold model.
