Can anyone confirm the composition/make up of Rolex Everose Gold?

Does it also contain any nickel?

Rolex Everose biggest difference from other rose gold is amount of platinum they add.


Rolex introduced Everose, their proprietary blend of 18-karat pink gold that combines pure gold, copper, and a small amount of platinum to create a unique rose gold alloy that will never lose its warm red color.

Is Everose gold stronger or more dent resistant than yellow or white gold?

Everose is just a pure marketing name Rose Gold is Rose gold whether its 9ct 18Kt or any other Kt and has the same scrap value. Rolex started to call it Everose gold around 2008/9,I have my Grandfathers rose gold watch chain hallmarked 1897 thats still looks as bright as when new. Rose gold or Everose is just 75% pure gold plus 25% alloys made up with copper, nickel, and a small bit of silver/palladium in Rolex rose gold.
