Is there a gold version of the Seamaster Ref.166.0172 / 168.0061?

I absolutely love the look of this reference. It's got the great "vintage Seamaster" appearance with the added benefit of a COSC certification. I think this would make a fantastic piece to wear with a suit. Does anyone know if the reference was ever produced in gold? I can't seem to find anything on this topic.

I forgot to mention that the Ref. 168.022 is very similar and comes in gold. But, I have yet to see a solid gold 168.022 with a sunburst dial.

There are solid gold versions of the 168.022. There not the most common but not super rare either.

There are currently two for sale on C24.

Attached is a pic of my gold capped 168.022 with the sandpaper dial. I prefer this one to the sunburst one. The dial just pops so good in sunlight!

Gorgeous piece!

Thanks! I really like it. Shouldn’t be too hard to come by either.
The cal 564 movement inside looks and functions amazingly as well.
