The major advantage it has over gold plating is that because it is gold on the outside, it can be both engraved and polished, whereas this can not be done with gold plating. Rolled gold is a process where the gold itself is layered over a base metal then bonded together using heat and pressure and made into various items such as jewellery and of course pocket watch cases. Measuring 51mm across plus the bow, the case is made from rolled gold which should not to be confused with gold plating which is much less durable.
