Beautiful!    Thanks for sharing!  I had always wondered how watch cases were made apart from just a punched out  piece of metal with a blank!

 

Makes sense why a 3/4 ounce 18 k solid gold case costs astronomically more than an ordinary jewellery item of the same weight!   Unless they have a way to  salvage all the gold cuttings and filings from each case as was wasted in the steel ones, we are paying mostly for gold that we don't get in the final product!  The day date presidential is a perfect example!
