Reference Number Naming Convention???
Figured there might be a few other bored members out there that could give me some insight. It’s very clear to me that ST stands for Steel, PT for Platinum, TI for Titanium, but I’ve always been curious why BA for Yellow Gold, BC for White Gold and OR for Rose Gold?
Hope everyone is staying safe and healthy! |
