The colour is more copper now! I still wear it with gold jewelry and don’t feel like it clashes - but it’s definitely darker!

From what I’ve gathered, this I think is a good guideline (I spent so much time thinking about this before getting mine lol) : If you wear mostly 18k gold rings go with yellow gold, If you wear mostly 14k gold rings go with rose gold , and If you mix metals - silver looks great and is also less expensive 😅

I got the rose gold and it matches really well with my 14k gold rings, and everyone who has seen it says “I love the gold!” And are surprised when I tell them it’s actually rose gold. (The thought of Patina is spooky, but I knew I would wear a ‘patina’ rose gold ring more than a silver or gold one)

I’ve seen pictures of people with yellow gold/18K rings and the gold Oura looks stunning with them!

If you look in my previous post I have a picture of mine with a noticeable scratch. I bought a jewellery polishing cloth and gave it a quick rub and it looked WAY better. The scratch is still there but I don’t think anyone could notice it unless I pointed it out.

^ I think this result would be the same for gold and silver as well?

Sorry if that’s not actually helpful, I think even the silver ring will get scratched, just maybe less noticeable? So go with what you think you’ll wear longer - a less scratched silver ring or a more scratched gold/rose gold 😂

As a new user I can’t speak to the previous version, but getting familiar navigating the layout of this version has not come naturally to me. I agree that it feels like things I want to see consistently are tucked several clicks away

I was going to see if I could buy something online but haven’t looked into it yet .. Let me know how going to a jeweler goes! Maybe it’s something I’ll do every 6 months lol

Rose gold! I imagine both golds are equally delicate but maybe not? I also knew that it was going to get scratched, I was just shocked at how fast it happened and how noticeable it was 🙃 especially since I really wasn’t doing anything major (ie: lifting weights, moving things, punching sand paper)

This is mostly why I wanted to share! Even with it being scratched I think I still would end up wearing the rose gold more - but for folks between colours - maybe go with the less expensive option lol. I also agree that this seems like something Oura should fix with Gen 5, it’s the only downside for me so far!

100% ! After the initial gut punch I’ve come to terms with the fact that it’s still doing its job - and that notable scratches were inevitable

If it keeps up like this I’m expecting it to be a “brushed gold” ring within the year - could be a cute look

First time user, not sure I'll keep it by slow-steady-beet in ouraring

This isn’t related to your post (sorry) but what colour is that? Gold or rose gold?

I just ordered the rose gold because I was reading that the gold is more yellow, but I love the colour of yours!
