A question about bezels

Just wonder what the differences between engine turned and fluted bezels were? And are all Rolex factory fluted bezels made of YG or WG?

Engine turned is made of steel. Fluted are made of gold, the older ones were indeed yg with rhodium plating if they were white gold, but not anymore, wg now is the same as their watches a special mix wg all the way now. Here you go.
