The back isn't base metal; the ring that is working as a stiffener to the case is however. I think this was one of those things borne out of the depression. The outer parts are solid 14K; where it matters as a piece of jewelry for wear.

The $400 price... Good luck. I sold that Nomad/Viceroy for far less then it was worth and there was none of these basemetal parts on the inside.

Did you do an overhaul on it?
