Gold watches

4 references

Gold watch cases are almost always 18 karat: 75% gold alloyed with other metals for hardness and colour. Rose gold gets its tone from copper; white gold uses metals such as palladium or silver and is often rhodium-plated.

Gold is denser and softer than steel, so a gold watch feels heavier for its size and marks more readily. It is most often used for dress watches and complicated pieces rather than tool watches.

Included is every reference whose case material is sourced as yellow, white or rose gold.

How we picked

Included: references whose case material carries a recorded source and reads "yellow gold", "white gold" or "rose gold". Gold-plated, two-tone and platinum cases are not included.

Watchfari holds no prices, reviews or test results, so nothing here is ranked by quality or value. Many values come from a hand-curated seed that has not yet been checked against a primary source; each reference page shows where every value came from.
