So I know gold plated and gold filled watches are supposed to be less durable than solid gold, just like chrome is not as desirable than stainless steel.
However sometimes there are really cool watches which are gold plated /gold filled, and they are quite tempting.

Did you ever fall for ones, and if so, would you post them?

Here's one I bought before I had any idea there could be an issue.

All three of them very lovely ! A really good start !

 

Also quite a few of my pocket watches are gold filled.

 

Love gold plated/ gold watches. Have a few different ones on my hunt list, but this will do for now.

 

Really nice - thanks for sharing it !

Bought this one ~4 years ago. Sold it. Bought it back.

 

YES of course you are correct. Now, stare into my eyes and repeat after me: I must only buy solid gold watches and not drive up demand for gold plated and gold filled watches...I must only buy solid gold watches and not drive up demand for gold plated and gold filled watches...
