Besides the numbers on the bezel having platinum inlaid, is there any other precious metals like white gold on the watch (e.g. second/minute/hour hands)? Thanks.

All the hands are 18k gold with just the face-side painted on the 24hr hand...

The lume surrounds are also gold...

I know that this thread is about metals but i just have this question :

Can we consider its ceramic bezel as precious ?

Not in my opinion.

904L is more precious than 316L.

I know this thread is about the gmtIIc, but does the ss daytona have any gold, or it just all steel?

The ceramic bezel is inlaid with platinum - that is what he was referring to.
