That lug looks steel to me, and I see the edge changing color

Pretty sure that is the lighting.

On the "C" case Constellations, the ones with the brickwork on the observatory are gold-capped and the ones without are solid gold (either 18K or 14K).

Solid gold:

Gold-capped:

Exactly the opposite of the earlier generation Constellations.

The back is all gold. The only method to find out if the dial is 18k is to have it opened, am I right?

Pics (high res.....) of the hallmarks of OP's watch will solve this
As will pics of the dail. Doesn't look gold to me, might be the lightning and/or the wooden surface that makes everything yellow
