That is between seller and buyer. Dan S weighed in on the Chrome case.

I'm personally not a fan of plated cases, but the watch looks honest.
+1, especially when dealing with UG watches as they’re all 50+ years old by now, speaking to the watches pre ownership transition to the Asian company of course.

@nguess19 good luck on the hunt and you’ve found the right forum resource for these watches. The community here have helped steer me away fake/molested pieces and towards genuine pieces. Other than this forum, I recommend Sala’s book on Universal Geneve. I believe it’s the only book that goes into detail across so many different UG watches.

Edited for grammar.
