Rolex daytona 16528

Hi there everyone. I hope someone is able to help me here.

I have recently purchased a second hand Rolex daytona 16528 for someone close to me. But Im confused about a couple of things.

Are all yellow gold 16528's 18ct gold or is there different types of yellow gold on these models? When i search online all that comes is 18ct..

Also the seller explained it was a Series A but i cant find what this means.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers

Yes all 18 ct gold. The A series thing is the serial number of the watch and is useful to know when it was made by Rolex.

.

18ct is 75% of 24ct, 75% of full gold.

You should find engraved "750" somewhere on the clasp (750/1000).
