In-person
The hue of the Gold limited edition Base One/Base One Max is rich. With that, depending on the lighting it can have a brighter golden tone like the images above or a deeper bronze hue like below.
Meanwhile, the glass can have a golden hue with rosy undertones or a more subdued yellow tint depending on the lighting.
No matter if you have a gold iPhone and Apple Watch or not, this limited edition colorway is beautiful.
