Do SS models contain any precious metals?
Do they?
I'm guessing the lining of the hour markers and the hands is white gold. Am I right?

I think you are right about the hands and hour markers being white gold.

I think that the fluted bezel on the SS DJ is WG.

White gold surrounds and hands began to show up in the mid-80s.
