Crown on new Air-King

I heard somewhere that the yellow crown on the Air-King bloodhound dial is made of yellow gold. Anyone out there know the truth? Thanx

"heard somewhere" Why don't you just do a little Google research and find the answer. I heard the world was ending 20 years ago....we're still here. Get facts, not rumors.

I read that the 3,6 and 9 are 18K white gold. As far as the yellow crown being gold this is the first time that's been asked, and I've never read that it was gold.

It was Anthony something doing a review of the 116900 on YouTube that mentioned it. I did research and couldn't find anything. Obviously, white gold for the 3..6..9..triangle border and the hands. Thanx for the response.

I have a bloodhound. The yellow crown on the dial is printed (paint), not gold.

The 3, 6, and 9, and the hands and indices, are white gold.
