Seem unnecessary, but I'm very confident that's what it stands for.
Not unnecessary to a maker producing four colors of gold plus gold-filled, silver, and platinum cases. I'm sure it was intended to avoid confusion among customers.
I once scored a huge bargain on a pentagon Ultra-VeriThin marked "18 K.W." because the seller didn't believe it was 18 karat gold. He assumed the "W" marking meant it was something other than solid 18K, and priced it accordingly. I did not try to convince him otherwise.
