Day Date metal options?
Greetings everyone. Which years/references for the DD was there definitely a non-YG offering? Such as white gold? Thanks in advance for sharing your expertise!

I think that only the first couple of years were YG only. After that they had Platinum, Yellow Gold, White Gold, and Pink Gold. The Pink Gold was discontinued in the early 70's

So pretty much after its release in the mid-50s, the DD was offered in other metals beside YG continuously year to year?

Were there ever 180x done in Pt (without diamonds)? Was there a 4-digit Pt-cased DJ? I've just about given up on RG but I'd love a 160x or 180x in Pt and I don't think I've ever seen one of either, I thought they didn't exist!
