An ivory-toned dial has a softness that pure white lacks, and it pairs naturally with rose gold. The Mido Baroncelli M8600.9.S7.1 (M86009S71) brings the two together in a 38mm two-tone watch that feels warm, gentle and refined.

Mido created the Baroncelli family in 1976 as its standard-bearer for classic elegance, and the design takes cues from the rounded arches of the Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II in Milan. This model's ivory-white dial is framed by steel and rose gold-toned finishes and includes a date. The Swiss automatic movement inside winds through daily wear, so there is no battery to replace, and sapphire crystal protects the face.

A two-tone bracelet in steel and rose gold PVD completes the watch. The softer dial color makes it a little more relaxed than a stark white dress watch, an easy companion with cream, navy, gray or earth-tone clothing.
