Ah, good one. I will make a Watch Tables photo and compare the colors.

Despite looking like it saw plenty of use, it looks like there's no brassing on the case, right?

Indeed, there is no brassing on the case. You might be right with that folding on a curved case theory. One contra argument is that the lug ends don't have wear either.

I dont know the differences between "Ultra quality", "14k gold filled", "14k gold reinforced with metal". I do know that the 14k gold filled cases reinforced with extra gold have less wear.

I will have a closer look inside the case if it looks different. If you ever travel oversees, you're invited to see this one!
