Pink wheels in movement
I notice that many Rolex movements have a couple of pinkish-red wheels. I think they relate to the automtaic winding mechanism.
My question is : What gives them this colour? I know that some high-end movements have blue screws resulting from heating the steel. Is there a similar process that causes the metal to go pink? |
