How can you tell if a wristwatch is real gold?
1 Answer
To tell if a wristwatch is real gold, look on the case for gold hallmarks, such as 18K, 14K, 750 and 585. Another option is to research the maker and find out if they have a history of producing genuine gold watches. If they don't, your watch is unlikely to be made of real gold. A certified appraiser or experienced jeweler can also help you identify the material of your timepiece. Shop a diverse assortment of gold watches on 1stDibs.
