Yeah, pretty hideous

Here's the opposite (gold case + stainless lugs)
Edit: Sorry, this is stainless case + gold bezel & crown

Am I correct in thinking that a case made of s/s in one piece is intrinsically stronger than s/s with gold lugs?

First, I made a mistake claiming the case on mine was gold (see edit). Second, I'm not sure which mix would be stronger. But it's an interesting question for sure.
