Not saying its worth the bid... but yes, Rolex did indeed gold plate this model... and it's thicker than plating... it's referred to as shelled...

Once I found out these existed several years ago, I was always fascinated with them. They are real Rolex, but the gold tone v. real precious metal is such a starkly different marketing strategy than today...In a weird way I think these oddball but authentic watches could be collectible down the line.
