I would say...14k outside of Europe in that era...but in Switzerland...doubtful. JMHO.

Discoloration can easily be through lack of cleaning of the case or bezel. If he never cleaned the watch 18k gold does tarnish and wherever oils or perspiration and salt etc gather it may tone more or less. Was it on a strap or gold bracelet?
