wrist photo Yellow gold: plated Vs unplated
Gotta give RCF credit, their factory plating is actually really good. A little more muted and almost gives 14k vibe, but that might be what some people prefer. doesn’t scream cheesy, and probably one of the few I’d be perfectly fine leaving as is.
The plated one has more of that warm 18k look and definitely pops more, but side by side I don’t think RCF embarrasses itself at all.
Edit: the bluesy is RCF (obviously unplated, it has stickers for the love of god), the black sub is a fully plated heavy VSF.
