Does replating with gold depreciate the value of a watch ?

I mean gold plating a gold plated or a 18k watch is a bad idea?

I hope you understand what i am asking

 

No, actually I don't. Why would you need to plate a layer of gold over top a solid gold watch? Give us more details on what you're trying to accomplish. If it's putting more gold back on a case to make it more crisp, plating isn't going to do it.

 

for cleaner/newer look... Shiny look.

 

Just clean up the case. Don't plate it!

 

i have seen posts here about re-plating a gold-plated watch where the plating has worn off. understand that.
find the idea of plating a solid gold watch very odd.

 

Do I sense a disaster brewing?

 

Before this thread go on a 90 degree turn... i am taking my statement back

 

that's wise.....
